No investment is safe. Sitting on cash is a guaranteed loss since inflation eats away the value of that cash. Long term investment in a stock index fund is the best choice for someone with decades remaining. Trying to base buying/selling decisions on rational thought doesn’t work reliably because as smart as you might be about “value”, what matters is what other people think the value is (or if they are gambling”.

Land is generally a safe investment. Because, y’know, they aren’t making any more of it.

And if that land has a house on it…. then even if it becomes less valuable, you’ll still have roof overhead.
