New member in Vegas, going to have 100k+ to invest in about a year.

[Scott Kammerer]

Hi everyone, I'm Scott. 28 years old, 8 year Marine Corps vet, based in Las Vegas, NV.

Starting in a few days I am taking on a private security contract that will take me one year to fulfill. At the end of said contract, I am looking to have at least $100,000 and probably a bit more, depending on my other investments in stocks. When my contract is over, I want to put my money somewhere smart.

Just looking for advice and newbie pointers from those who know the area. Thanks!
