[ersatz]

I'm going to be paying off my student loans fairly quickly and will be accumulating cash in my savings account pretty fast. I don't want it to just sit there doing shit all, so how should I invest it? Markets (that includes index funds) in general are just insane and look like a good way to loose your shirt to a bunch of wolves. Best thing I can think of is to put it towards a business bankroll and start one or maybe precious metals/jewels but in between those times, what should I do?
