So I have about 50 grand in a money market account left to me after my pops passed. I had more but I made some dumb choices/ paid off some debt . I just want some suggestions from KTL that could help me invest my money in a smart and lucrative way. Somebody help point me in the right direction please. Anybody in a similar situation? Daps and positive reps r on deck

40% to a personal liquid savings

20% in an investment account
10% on invest in yourself (gym membership, adult education class, clothes, colicash, etc)

you could buy a rental property depending on where you live. least you know it wont lose any equity and if you ever hit skid row you have a place to stay for free

Don't spend it away. It's not a fortune but it's enough to build a small foundation for your adult financial life. I actually like the idea of buying a rental property. Needs some research first though.

Put in a value fund (with a focus on dividend stocks and automatic reinvestment) and let it sit.

1/3 into liquid savings for use only in emergencies, 1/3 into a conservative stock account or low fee Mutual Fund, and 1/3 to settle active debts and liquid cash.

The best idea would be to start a small business with the money. Look at what your intrests are and consider setting up a personal or online business.
