This is not the place to get financial help. I know seminars can help a lot with info, try a few. Big thing is don’t be in a rush.

Annuities are the salesperson's best friend with the highest commissions possible. One thing no one talks about is long-term healthcare insurance.

One more thing as someone else said I would keep all my money out of the stock market or just put 20% in and use that 43,000 as it's the same risk as staying in the stock market and then Market going down 20% . Enjoy life you never know when you might get hit by a golf cart .

My advice - Seek professional advice, e.g. Fidelity, your bank, etc. Asking for investments tips in this forum indicates you would benefit from professional help.

Why invest now with all that is going on and much more downside to come. 1st time in over 40 years of investing that I pulled all my money out of the market in early January. During every major downturn the last 20 years, I didn’t sell a share, I actually even bought more during those downturns, not this time. I would have been down almost $500k if I didn’t pull my $$$ out.
I don’t invest in bonds, I don’t have annuities. I usually buy very good low risk high return index funds with 2-3% dividends. I also buy etfs and a couple of stocks like Apple or utilities. If you buy bonds making a couple %, you are losing money. Last year I averaged 33% gains overall, the year before if was 60% gains in 2020 because of the “v” shaped recovery. I’m waiting for many changes to happen before I get back in which might be later this year or early next. I also know you can’t time the market. |

Talk to a financial analyst, us or your grocery ****** I'd trust the 1st one
short term bond for 2 years of cash flow, s&p 500 index (do you think buffet is reliable) some bonds some fund that invests in proven dividend growers (like Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF VIG) QQQ |

If you want something with a higher risk level, you might have someone help you look at PCEF which invests in closed-end funds with high yields and options income. It currently yields more than 8% and pays monthly dividends. The price can go down which will erode principal for a period of time, but it has always risen after such a period. Meanwhile, the income stream would continue or even rise which would defray losses. |
