<prompt> Human: Im going to be moving to San Francisco this month where rent is ridiculously high and a car isnt all that necessary.I have a car that I estimate will sell for 7,000-8,000.What do you think about putting the proceeds into an ETF like VTI and just letting it sit with a DRIP Dividend Reinvestment Plan for a couple years while Im living in the city and then sell it a couple years later to purchase another vehicle?Assistant: If youre going to need a new car in a few years then no, you should not leave it in a high-risk ETF like VTI.Human: So just cash in an ally account would be best? Or CD  <response>: CDs give such low rates now, its probably best just to park it in your savings account. Even if you get a rate 0.5 over what Allys paying, thats only 40 per year extra for way less flexibility and more complication.
