Hello! I'm a 23yo who's saved up a measly 1,500 of long-term savings and I was wondering what people's takes were on the best moves to reliably invest the money? My family says its better to hold onto cash rn, but I figure, even with such an unstable market, it's still better to not just leave the cash sitting. Is a 3+% savings account maybe the best option for now until markets (maybe) calm down, or should I do bonds, or what? Or is it better to buy at the highs since its a longterm investment?

I've also considered the high-rate returns offered by buying "no" options for obvious outcomes like JD Vance becoming president in 2029 through casinos like Kalshi and whatnot lol

Thank you very much!
