Assuming you’ve done none of the basics (6 months living expenses, 10% in uber liquid money market / HYSA) Just keep the rest of it in US equities. I’m not an index fan, I just choose a new stock I believe in every few years.

Hookers and blow. Or if you're one of those responsible types, invest into IVV and save up for real estate.

Down payment on a house/condo

Invest in the market. Mix of US and international indexes, gold, and specific energy, AI/bots battery, and defense funds. Also have some in bonds and inflation protected bonds. Don't overdo it. 6-8 items i your portfolio. Get smart about the market and how macro events affect sectors. It's the best thing you can do for your future.

Save it, if $100k is all you got you need to do some more work bro
