[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10 years is a long time to lock up the money. Perhaps build a bond ladder. I would use mini bonds if you’re in a high bracket. If you need most of those funds I would not put them in the market. Depends if this $800k is everything or if you separately have an emergency fund and retirement savings etc. [/quote] AAA Muni bonds and treasuries effectively pay the same after-tax rate. If you want something still fairly secure but get more interest then you can pick just like an A muni bond but you want to make sure it is not a special purpose vs a general fund muni. Special purpose means maybe they issued munis to construct an airport and then then the revenue from airport pays back the bonds. If for some reason the airport defaults, then the bonds default…no obligation for the state to step in and cover.[/quote]
