Parking your long-term money in ETFs is one option that many people consider when planning their investments. ETFs offer diversification with low management fees compared to other types of investments such as mutual funds or individual stocks. You also have access to some tax advantages when using an ETF inside a TFSA (Tax Free Savings Account). However, it’s important to remember that if you want more control over your investments then ETFs may not be the best option for you since they are passively managed and don’t offer much customization potential.

Another popular option is investing in stocks which allow you more flexibility than ETFs but require a bit more research on your part before deciding which ones are right for you. If making stock picks isn’t something that interests you then another option could be investing in a balanced portfolio such as BMO’s Smart-Folio or WS Invest where most of the decision making has been done for you by professionals who can help diversify your holdings so that even if one sector weakens due to market fluctuations others may still perform well enough maintain overall growth of your portfolio.

If none of these options seem appealing then maybe consider reinvesting some funds into what has already been made through business ventures or allocating them into different funds/stocks - but only after researching risk tolerance levels and understanding how each type of investment works before pulling any money out from BMO or elsewhere! Ultimately though it comes down to understanding what type of investor are you? Are looking for immediate returns through trading activities? Are short-term gains what matters most? Or do prefer slower growth plans focused on long-term increase over time? Whatever route is taken make sure fees remain low - as higher costs can quickly erode any potential earnings - especially when compounded over many years!
