Put 50% of it into the ETF with the call letters (QQQ), which is all stocks in the Nasdaq. And 50% into the S and P, which is (SPY). But, I would NOT buy ANYTHING having to do with stocks or assets until after all of the current potentially WORLD-disruptive war is OVER. Because prices of EVERYTHING could fluctuate wildly. You might try to buy on LARGE, very large, market dips downward? But, timing the market is SUPER difficult!
