I’d like some financial input. I have $56k in a high yield savings account. Other than my checking acct (3-4k) and Roth/401k (which goes untouched) it’s basically all the money I have. (Zero debt/loans, no house/car) Should I be doing something else with part of the money? I know nothing about stocks or investing. Any thoughts?
