My fear of losing money on investments has kept me cash-strapped for a long time, but my savings aren't keeping up with inflation. How can I invest $80K in equities and still make a healthy profit margin?

U.S. t bills are the same as junk bonds.  In order to get buyers you need to keep raising yields as  the national debt keeps going higher.
things are not improving.

Our economy is like a flailing fish, fighting for its life. The normal state of the U.S. economy is actually very bad. Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.

I've been saving cash for a long time because I'm afraid of losing money through investing. However, my savings aren't keeping up with the inflation rate. How can I invest $80K in stocks while maintaining a good profit margin?

Interesting, the stock market is currently experiencing a decline amongst investors regarding the Federal Reserve's plan to continue increasing interest rates until inflation is stabilized. As for myself, I find myself at a crossroads, uncertain whether to liquidate my $250k stock portfolio I'm seeking advice on the best strategy to capitalize on this current bear market.

Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

What is the best way to make money from crypto investment as crypto is turning around massively.?❤️

[BrokerBarbara]

Rents & housing prices are out of control where I live, as is auto insurance, lending costs, utilities, food, car repairs, medical expenses... If you're a tree, well you have nothing to worry about.
Modest income humans however are struggling.

[michaeldrum]

That's great but everything is still too expensive. Something has got to give.

Lies. All lies. What a rosie picture he paints as i cant afford food

[GarrettKoval]

If I was a betting man, I’m expecting more rate increases in the next 12 months.. Dropping rates right now would just increase inflation.

[Brendonbosy]

Since 2019 before the pandemic, housing is up over 40%, gas is up almost 50%, and most food products are even higher. Celebrating the "victory" right now... Goebbels was also touting the great "successes" Germany was making in 1944 in Italy and in the Battle of the Bulge

Consumers are struggling with 29% credit 💳, 10% 🚙 loans and 7% 🏡 mortgages. It may take some regional banks 🏦 collapsing to get some emergency rate cuts %

[LnNnntty]

The problem is that the prices are already up. Its pretty hard to get them to go down

[Brendonbosy]

Raise rates to 6%; come on Powell, lets crater this mofo!

[mikapeltokorpi]

Powell: "Read my lips: no rate cuts this year."

Analysts: "One to 10 rate cuts this year."

What planet do these people live on? Blind Freddie can see how much the standard of living has plummeted in the past 2 years! Incredible how he can stand up there and keep a straight face! God help us for the future.
