[quote=Anonymous]We have approximately $100k in a savings account, earning %.85 APY. We both have retirement accounts, but this is our only true savings account. My husband wants to put all of this into an investment account, but that makes me nervous because it is both an emergency fund and at least a portion of a potential down payment on a new home (would also use money from sale of current home. No immediate plans to sell/move but in my mind its in the next few years). Even if we could fairly easily access the money if needed, it makes me nervous that the money could get wiped out or significantly reduced in an investment account if we need it in the short term. What would you do? Keep some in savings (how much?) and invest the rest? Invest it all? Keep it all in savings? Something else?[/quote]
