Right. I don't want you to think I'm about to throw every dime I've got in stocks.

It won't be a whole nest egg and it's 100% money that will not be needed any time soon (barring some sort of disaster).

Yeah, I talked about it before but I had an old 401k that was rolled over into what I've learned is a traditional IRA. I've been meaning to get on the ROTH thing for a while now.. and, yes, definitely under 50.

I dont think the fact that AMC is up over 50% in the last 30 days is being talked about enough here.

Out of curiosity, where would you put your emergency fund? I have money set in an HSA to cover any medical emergency, but want to have another 5-10k set aside for any other emergency that might pop up. Would be nice to get some return on it over sitting in a savings account.

Savings Account.

You don't want that kind of thing having stock exposure. If you insist on sticking it in an investment account, I wouldn't go any narrower than SPY.

Potentially you could look into a bond fund. VBTLX is Vanguard's Bond Index Fund. Bonds could potentially be a play, they're not going to get much lower, as interest pretty much cannot get lower, and if interest rates rise, so should it.

Still, Savings Account.

Yup, same advice you’ll get from me. Needs to be super safe and accessible at ANY time without risk of declining value.

I have 6 months (some say this excessive) of expenses sitting in emergency savings. Came in handy this year when we could pay in cash an unexpected need of getting a new roof and AC units. Working on building it back up now too.

It’s boring in a savings account but it’s for emergencies, play it safe.
