If you're looking for an easy way to invest your hard-earned money, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be worth considering.
Rather than deciding on which individual shares you should put your money into, ETFs allow you to invest in a large group of shares through just a single investment.
With that in mind, here are three ETFs that are popular with investors right now:

ETFS Battery Tech & Lithium ETF (ASX: ACDC)
The first ETF to look at is the ETFS Battery Tech & Lithium ETF. It provides investors with exposure to providers of electrochemical storage technology and mining companies that produce metals used for the manufacturing of battery-grade lithium batteries. With the outlook for battery materials and lithium prices becoming increasingly positive due to growing demand and tight supply, the companies included in the fund appear well-placed for growth in the coming years. This includes AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group, Lockheed Martin, and Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS).
VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)
Another ETF for investors to look at is the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF. This ETF aims to provide investors with an easy way to invest in the type of shares that legendary investor Warren Buffett buys. These are companies with sustainable competitive advantages or moats. The ETF currently contains almost 50 attractively priced companies with sustainable competitive advantages. These include the likes of Alphabet (Google), Altria, Boeing, Coca Cola, Kellogg Co, and Walt Disney.
VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF (ASX: ESPO)
A final ETF for ASX investors to look at is the VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF. This ETF gives investors exposure to the biggest players in a global video game market estimated to comprise 2.7 billion active gamers. Among the companies included in the fund are AMD, Electronic Arts, Nintendo, Nvidia, Roblox, and Take-Two. VanEck believes these companies are well-placed to benefit from the increasing popularity of video games and eSports.
