I have a good chunk of life insurance money coming to me. Ideas?
My father recently died, and I will be receiving $100,000 of life insurance because of it. I will be using $11,000 of it to completely pay off my financial aid debt. I have about $3,000 I need to use to completely pay off my credit card debt. Other than that, I will be using bits and pieces of it to buy some fairly inexpensive luxury items.
At this point, I am unsure of what to do with the rest of the money. I know I can put some of it in savings, some in a money market, invest some of it, etc. Some recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
