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

    Right? I’m baffled I had to scroll down this far for a mention of investing, which was my immediate answer, after reading the greentext. And it’s absolutely the thing everybody should be doing with part of their money

  Also, if you are technically self-employed, 401k + self-employed IRA provides a lot of room for more tax benefits. If you manage to fill those, then you can always open a brokerage account to put additional savings.

  Broad market index funds are a popular choice.

  Eventually retire so you have time to play those video games and get sleep.
