Put the money against your credit card debt or mortgage (for a guaranteed rate of return equal to interest rate).
That’s the best investment right now.
That's where half of ours is going-the mortgage. One of us gets to spend for fun and one of us doesn't. ;)
I am considering putting it toward a new furnace, though. That would hit on a few things: we'd be spending, but will get a tax deduction on it the next year for energy savings, if the Congresspersons allow that again.
