Depends. Did I have credit card debt? Am I paying alot in interest on other loans? How are my retirement accounts looking? Do I have enough money sitting in the bank to take care of my expenses in case of the unforeseen? Take care of high interest debt first, then an emergency fund, and then start thinking about investments. If it gets to investments, a low-cost index fund is likely a good choice.

Ever think of investing in yourself? Get a good education so that you can earn that much every year. No one can ever take that away from you.
Otherwise, it depends upon your income, expenses, family obligations, health, age, risk tolerance, life insurance, home ownership, etc. etc. etc.
First consult a paid Certified Financial Planner to make sure all your bases are covered to your own personal satisfaction. Then pick an area of investing and study, study, study. Next, get your feet wet and test the waters. When you have money on the line, you will learn if you made the right choice.

I'd invest it in a nice house in The Valley of the Sun, Arizona. You'd be able to pay it all off right away and would have a steady income from renting it out for about $750 a mo... It will probably show an increase of 50% in value after fifteen yrs...

I already have a diversified portfolio, so I'd invest it aggressively. I'd pick about ten different stocks and invest $10k each. I'd probably invest in a few undervalued bank stocks. I'd probably invest in a few foreign companies to hopefully benefit from the falling dollar.

Buy blue chips that are out of favor, have good dividend yields, and little to no debt. Make sure these companies have a dominant position in their industry and have a diversified business. Never put all your money into one company. But 5-10 positions to reduce risk. It's a long term endeavor. Good luck!

If I HAD to invest right now?? I'd probably buy gold, GLD. I think the Fed. will keep pandering to the market and keep lowering rates, thereby increasing inflation.
