My checking account gets like 3% on balances up to 35k. Over that, the rates step down but it's better than CD rates

Thanks again for the replies.

My goal for the money is to buy a farm 3-5 years out. My hope is the land market will moderate by then, and I don't have the down payment right now anyway. In 3-5 years I should be able to buy something, and I am just looking at a way to increase my down payment in that time. I will probably keep a portion of that money in cash and invest a portion, just figuring out how Aggressive I should be.

Here is a recommendation. Don't start researching Coach (COH) and think to yourself "My god they've gotten killed the last few months and they are a solid company. I think I'll buy at $39". 5 minutes later it's at $37 and heading south. Oh and thanks TD Ameritrade for sending me alerts telling me how dumb I am.

I should have listened to my wife he said Coach is so 5 years ago and KORS is the place to be.
