Right. I don't want you to think I'm about to throw every dime I've got in stocks.

It won't be a whole nest egg and it's 100% money that will not be needed any time soon (barring some sort of disaster).

Yeah, I talked about it before but I had an old 401k that was rolled over into what I've learned is a traditional IRA. I've been meaning to get on the ROTH thing for a while now.. and, yes, definitely under 50.

I dont think the fact that AMC is up over 50% in the last 30 days is being talked about enough here.

Out of curiosity, where would you put your emergency fund? I have money set in an HSA to cover any medical emergency, but want to have another 5-10k set aside for any other emergency that might pop up. Would be nice to get some return on it over sitting in a savings account.

Savings Account.

You don't want that kind of thing having stock exposure. If you insist on sticking it in an investment account, I wouldn't go any narrower than SPY.

Potentially you could look into a bond fund. VBTLX is Vanguard's Bond Index Fund. Bonds could potentially be a play, they're not going to get much lower, as interest pretty much cannot get lower, and if interest rates rise, so should it.

Still, Savings Account.
