Port Washington has a strong pre-July 4 history hook this year. The Public Library’s America 250 programming includes a “Cow Neck in the Revolution” exhibit running from June through December 2026, and the library says the area endured seven years of British occupation and even pirate attacks during the Revolution.

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?

  1. Appreciation. The ArtPrice100 Index outpaced the S&P 500 overall from 2000 to 2025

  2. Low-correlation. The postwar contemporary segment has moved independently of traditional investments like stocks since ‘95.*

  3. 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.

Shares in new offerings can sell quickly but...

Featured Real Estate Listing
A 1948 Levittown Home With Room to Grow
16 Sycamore Lane is a 1948 Levittown house with five bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a first-floor bedroom and bath, and a family room with a stone fireplace. The date matters here. Levittown became one of America’s defining postwar suburbs, and a 1948 home still carries that original Nassau housing story, even when the layout has moved far beyond the early two-bedroom model. This one gives you both: a practical larger floor plan and a direct line back to one of Long Island’s most recognizable suburban chapters.
