I’m getting a $30k check from family and want to invest. I have a 401k and savings, should I open an IRA/Roth, high yield savings account? Any advice on investment strategies and companies to consider? Thank you.

HYSA if you're saving up for a large expense (car, wedding, house) in the near term. Otherwise an S&P500 index fund via a brokerage account or tax-advantaged account (401k, IRA)

What risk level do you want to play with?

What's your investment horizon? For LT, you can buy into S&P500 index fund but don't buy with the full $30k. Wait for dips from current levels and invest $5-$10k at a time. Hold on to $5-7k in cash yielding short term Treasury rates to take advantage of some opportunistic downturn situations which are bound to happen every decade or so. You're rarely going to be able to time the market but averaging out from these high valuations and current uncertainty levels will probably play out in your favor in the medium to long run.

Or just go Masters with IT concentration.
