Where to Invest $100,000 Right Now, According to Experts

Investors face a dilemma. When the S&P 500 finished its worst quarter since 2022 last month, diversifiers like bonds and bitcoin fell too.

Even with the turnaround in mid-April, analysts at Goldman Sachs and Vanguard have projected low-single-digit annualized returns from 2024-2034.

Bloomberg asked where experts would personally invest $100,000 for their March monthly edition.

One answer that surfaced for a second time? Art.

It's what billionaires like Bezos and the Rockefellers have privately used to diversify for decades.

Why?

  1. Appreciation. The ArtPrice100 Index outpaced the S&P 500 overall from 2000 to 2025

  2. Low-correlation. The postwar contemporary segment has moved independently of traditional investments like stocks since ‘95.*

  3. Resilience. A scarce, physical, and global asset class with decades of demonstrated demand.

❖   The Gripe   ❖
A Personal Affront, Reported Faithfully

I closed the door. I went to the kitchen. The door was open again when I came back. There was no wind in the rest of the house. The door had decided.

❖   The Damage Report   ❖
Today's News, Ranked By How Much It Ruined My Mood
🔥 Most Enraging
The app I pay to play music I like now spends its energy recommending music I do not, which it calls discovery.
😩 Most Exhausting
Of course the free cure does not work, which leaves only the ones you pay for.
😤 Unreasonably Annoying
Somewhere a person is missing a giant puppet and has decided, on reflection, not to come forward.
🤷 Somehow Also Happening
It got into a yard it could not get out of, much like my trips through Ikea.
❖   And Some Other Stuff   ❖
Briefly, And With Limited Enthusiasm
▸ Older adults improved on memory and stress tests after three weeks of placebo pills, even when told the pills were fake — Their minds improved on a pill everyone admitted was nothing, which is a discount I would like applied elsewhere.
▸ Heliconius butterflies can live up to twenty-five times longer than close relatives and show little sign of aging — A butterfly has solved aging and is spending the bonus years eating pollen, which is about what I would do with mine.
▸ DuckDuckGo says installs jumped thirty percent as users look for a way out of Google's AI search results — People are switching search engines to escape an answer they never asked to be given, which counts as a movement now.
That's it. Go complain about something.
