Cash investing for short term ( less than a year)
Please recommend a SAFE way to invest cash ( ~20k) for a short period of time, about 6 months.

High yield savings account or CD's are both paying 5%+ APY. Check out Bask Bank as one of many examples - FDIC Insured. With rates expected to be cut next month I would suggest a 3-6month CD to lock in the higher rate as long as you know you don't need the money early. Otherwise with the savings account your money is accessible any time.
All the best!
