I’ve struggled managing my finances up to this point and want to start investing and saving conservatively. I currently only have a PNC checking account and 401K. I calculated im able to save/invest 3K a month. Should I be putting most of that in a low % checking account or elsewhere. I would like to consolidate if at all possible(checking, investment acct). Appreciate any advice. Only have about 10k saved at the moment.

I inherited around 70k in a TD AmericanExpress IRA account. Just turned 30...I MIGHT use the $$ as a house down payment down the road, but would actually prefer to invest it longterm for retirement. Already maxing out 401k and Roth. What would be the best investment options?

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
