If you want to invest in less risky assets and in the mean time also earn good profits, you should consider investing in Mutual Funds and ETFs. Investing in Mutual Funds and ETFs means you're putting your money into a shared investment pool. There will be someone to manage your funds, you do not have to choose your assets, the fund manager takes charge, investing in various markets like stocks, real estate, or even cryptocurrency. Mutual Funds and ETFs are considered less risky compared to directly investing in the stock market, and gives you better profits compared to bonds and treasury bills.

A better option for less hazardous investments with good profit potential would be mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These alternatives pool your funds for professionally managed, diversified investments in stocks, real estate, and even cryptocurrencies. They provide a more balanced approach, potentially generating larger returns than bonds or treasury bills, while lowering risk in comparison to direct stock market investments.

A lot of people believe that investing through investment pools like Mutual Funds and ETFs are good investment strategy compared to directly investing in the stock. However, I do not think investment pools are in any way better than direct investing. It is true that when you invest through investing pool yo do not have to take a pain in researching assets to make investment decision, however, this does not mean your investment is risk proof. What if the investment fund manager embezzles your funds, what if they never give our money?
