@Jonathan Cox Im being a bit of a smart a** because your question has no context. You are basically like hey I have 120k what do I do with it. There are millions of answers...go to Vegas and bet it all on black lol. Give some context, what is it that you want to do? What are your goals and objectives? If you lose the 120k will you be bankrupt? If thats the case then maybe set aside some of the 120k in a rainy day fund. Id definitely like to point you in the right direction (and Im sure there are lots of people in the bigger pockets community that would be willing to give you suggestions) but you cant just ask such a vague question and expect to get meaningful answers. Please add some context and detail to your question please.
