I recently came into a smaller but significant lump sum of money that I’d like to invest (but don’t have the budget to continue contributing to monthly). I’ve done some research but all of the info and options are incredibly overwhelming and confusing to me. I’m hoping that someone on this subreddit will have some advice on what the best option(s) would be for this scenario 😭

For context, I’m very risk averse and have opened traditional CDs through my bank but am hoping to find an option that returns higher yields.
