Might as well put the funds into AAA rating bonds for fixed income and sleep well every night.
Fully agree after I read about the liquidity issue.. hence now slowly building up egg nest.. To partake in such Aaa rating bonds, u need at least 200k cash.. yield slightly lower at ~6% but definitely safer!😬
