Your revocable living trust can hold most types of investments including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, and real estate. Many families start with diversified index funds or target-date funds for simplicity, then add individual stocks or sector funds based on their risk tolerance. Consider your timeline - younger families often choose growth-focused investments, while those nearing retirement may prefer income-generating assets like dividend stocks or bonds. The trust structure allows you to change investments as your needs evolve.
