Almost daily, Doug Andrew posts answers to financial questions on his 3 Dimensional Wealth YouTube channel. Recently, he answered the question, “How liquid is money in your favorite financial instrument?”

The burning question when it comes to liquidity is this: how easily can I access my money when I need to?
