Don’t Let Your Lazy Cash Eat all Your Food

January 20, 2023 By E.J. Smith

With bond yields this high and considering you might have some lazy cash still sitting around doing nothing, isn’t it time to put it to work? It’s been a while since we’ve seen full faith and credit treasuries with yields this high.

Let’s not get into the prediction business. Will the Fed raise rates further? Will it be forced to cut later this year? Not my concern. My concern is you building a portfolio focused on generating income.

Action Line: When inertia gets in the way, the result could be another year of your lazy cash sitting on your couch and eating all your food. Instead, put that cash to work. Let’s go.

He grew up in Mattapoisett, MA, an idyllic small town on the water near Cape Cod. He spends time in Newport, RI and Bartlett, NH—both as far away from Wall Street as one could mentally get. The Newport office is on a quiet, tree lined street not far from the harbor and the log cabin in Bartlett, NH, the “Live Free or Die” state, sits on the edge of the White Mountain National Forest. He enjoys spending time in Key West and Paris.
