No it isn’t. You’re exposing yourself to interest rate risk when doing that

Not in any meaningful sense if you are only looking to park the money safely and hold to maturity.

Buying 3 month T bills won't pay much, but it will pay more than the interest SVB pays on your checking account balance and importantly is backed by the full faith and credit of the us govt.

Yeah, you can short eurodollars or maybe something else to hedge risk. At a certain point, you need to be sophisticated enough to manage your funds.
