      There are way too many comments in this thread for it to be okay that yours is the only one mentioning investing for retirement.

    If you are young and there’s nothing you really want to do with a significant amount of money, your emergency savings are decently big, and you don’t intend to make a significant purchase in the near to mid future, then you find yourself a tax-free retirement account, a world index fund and an S&P 500 index fund and distribute money across them with the priority being reaching whatever is the max in the first one

    I’ve been in this situation.

    Get married to a single mom and you’ll be broke again in less than a year and in debt the next. That’s the quickest way to lose all of your money.

      Didn’t go the single mom route, but a wife and kids takes care of the free time and money problem.
