You can buy options that expire a few years out. They’re more expensive as you go out further.
Yes DURING 2022 the markets saw a big drop however they had a healthy rebound. By not messing with things and staying in the market (ie not missing all the best days) I, like so many others, ended 2022 with a positive return. But that return only came about because of the last quarter.

Anyways… a couple decent articles for a different perspective on investing:
