Where to Invest $100,000 Right Now, According to Experts
Investors face a dilemma. When the S&P 500 finished its worst quarter since 2022 last month, diversifiers like bonds and bitcoin fell too.
Even with the turnaround in mid-April, analysts at Goldman Sachs and Vanguard have projected low-single-digit annualized returns from 2024-2034.
Bloomberg asked where experts would personally invest $100,000 for their March monthly edition.
One answer that surfaced for a second time? Art.
It's what billionaires like Bezos and the Rockefellers have privately used to diversify for decades.
Why?
Appreciation. The ArtPrice100 Index outpaced the S&P 500 overall from 2000 to 2025
Low-correlation. The postwar contemporary segment has moved independently of traditional investments like stocks since ‘95.*
Resilience. A scarce, physical, and global asset class with decades of demonstrated demand.
Thanks to the world's premier art investing platform, now anyone can invest in works featuring legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso, without needing millions.

The Rundown
Dude of the Week: John Tortorella
The world of sports has been nothing but shook this week. Myles Garrett gets traded, Aj Brown to the Pats, and the NBA Finals starting up. But I am going to go out of my comfort zone here and give the award to someone in a realm I am not super familiar with, hockey. John Tortorella is this week’s Dude of the Week.
Torts is known as one of the most polarizing figures in the hockey world. He is known for being difficult to play for since he isn’t the softest hearted of guys. Tampa, New York, Vancouver, Columbus, and Philly – the players all hated him. Since then, Torts spent some time as kind of a “vibes guy” with the US Olympic team and we all saw what happened with that.
And now, he’s at the helm in Vegas and is 3 wins away from proving his evolution as a coach and getting his first cup in 22 years. And the best part of it, the boys in Vegas seem to absolutely love him. Under Torts he the Knights are 19-4-1.
This is a redemption story for the ages. Now the question is can Vegas pull this off and win a second title in the past 5 years? Congratulations to John Tortorella on this esteemed accomplishment.

Jalen Brunson…Thats it
Jalen Brunson showed up to Game 1 of the NBA Finals like he had a dinner reservation and absolutely refused to be late. The Spurs built a 14-point lead, Victor Wembanyama was doing alien things, and San Antonio fans were already practicing their victory tweets. Then Brunson casually dropped 30 points, scored 13 in the fourth quarter, and turned the entire arena into a library with a closing run that felt less like basketball and more like a hostage negotiation.
Every time the Spurs thought they had control, Brunson appeared out of nowhere like the final boss in a video game, hit another shot, and reminded everyone that "The Brunson Burner" doesn't come with an off switch. No lead felt safe, no momentum lasted long, and every big Spurs moment seemed to be followed by Brunson calmly ripping it right back away.
By the end of the night, the Knicks had stolen Game 1, and Spurs fans were left wondering if they had accidentally paid to watch a Jalen Brunson masterclass.

The Browns is the Browns: Myles Garrett GONE

When the news broke that Myles Garrett was traded, I was honestly shocked. Then I took a step back and said, "Why the fuck am I shocked?"
I’ve been alive for 23 years of Cleveland Browns football, and at this point, this is exactly the type of shit we expect. We are such a shitty franchise that it doesn’t really matter what gold we strike or what players we get—we will always find a way to mess it up.
Looking at the Garrett trade from an analytical standpoint, sure, keep building for the future. Keep loading our roster with what is expected to be young, raw talent. Ya see, though, there's one massive problem with that strategy: WE ARE THE CLEVELAND BROWNS. A franchise that I’ve grown to accept will ALWAYS find a way to mess it up.
A franchise that managed to mess up the best Cleveland quarterback I’ve seen in my lifetime in Baker Mayfield. A franchise that executed the worst deal in American sports history in Deshaun Watson. And a franchise that was only able to get one playoff win in nine years with the NFL’s all-time sack leader.
So Jared Verse, I’m sure you’re a fantastic guy and an even better football player. But dude, you have just entered the most dysfunctional, losing-mentality, "let’s do everything we can to fuck it up" franchise the league will likely ever see.
I genuinely wish you the best of luck, because if history has taught us anything, you're going to need it. As much as I fucking hate the guy, JuJu Smith-Schuster said it best: “The Browns is the Browns.”
See ya every Sunday next season.🤝

The Bird Whisperer
I am writing this on Wednesday June 3rd, I will provide the date to my writing schedule because yesterday the world was absolutely blown away by one of the best to ever do it. Samuel Henderson, a 12 year old bird fanatic from Oklahoma has gone viral once again. Now while writing this I found new information. I guess this video actually came out 2 years ago and went pretty viral. But for some of us this is the first time seeing Samuel who is a true master of his craft.
Let me set the stage : You are back in middle school, it’s talent show day. Your confidence in your ability is through the roof because you know you're the man. You walk up to the mic and set down your container of plushy toy birds. It is showtime. You pull your first bird out of the basket and instantly capture the world in the palm of your hand. This is exactly how Samuel must’ve felt. Not only did Samuel hit every bird noise perfectly, he also DOMINATED the stage. After every perfect call Samuel then threw each plushy to the ground as almost a, “Yeah I just crushed that call”. The audience wants to clap after every call but as the professional Samuel is, told them to hold their applause until the end. For 5 minutes straight he leaves his classmates in disbelief. There is even a boy in the front row who turns to the back and throws his hands up in pure disbelief.
Samuel Henderson is a national treasure and a true professional. I hope this is not the last of Samuel we get to see. One thing is for sure though, once you watch this video you will never be able to forget it. Legend.

The Last Time Stocks Were This Expensive Was December 1999.
"Right now, it's good. But it was in '72, '86, 2000, and 2007." - Jamie Dimon, May 2026.
The Shiller CAPE ratio just hit 42.3. The only time in 140 years it's been higher? December 1999.
Stocks can stay expensive for a long time...
It’s one metric to consider, but when your portfolio is built around the most expensive equities in modern history, what else you diversify with could really matter.
Blue-chip contemporary and post war art has shown near-zero correlation with the S&P since 1995.* Prices are largely driven by private collectors competing for a fixed supply of artwork by artists like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso.
Masterworks lets you invest in shares of that market.

Joe Royer - We Need a DOB Check
Cleveland Browns tight end Joe Royer, 24, is reportedly dating an 18-year-old who just graduated high school — the daughter of his position coach. Adding to the scrutiny, there appears to be evidence suggesting the relationship may have begun before she turned 18.
It’s also been noted that she was attending his games and wearing his jersey while still a high school senior.
Now, a video has surfaced allegedly showing Royer saying, “When you’re 18, hit me up and I’ll f*** you.”
Needless to say, this is not a good look for Joe Royer.
