Hey /biz/,
I have a little over 5K saved and I'm thinking about investment opportunities. I currently work a job that pays a little 30K a year. I don't have any major expenses and I have almost no debt so it has been relatively easy to save up this money in a short period of time. I've considered just dumping the money into a Roth IRA but I've had a lot of luck reselling toys and collectibles in the past so I was thinking about maybe just buying a ton of stuff and sitting on it for a higher ROI.
TLDR Version: How would you guys invest 5000 dollars?

Pay off the debts, then save up 6 months of expenses in an emergency fund, then save up 20% for a housing fund (house prices will crash like a motherfucker in 10-15 years when the target market is broke millenials), then start investing.
You're a decade away from being able to invest.
