<prompt> Human: After all bills paid we are still saving roughly 4k a month. All this is going to savings but we have reached a point where we are seriously considering investing. We feel our money can be doing something better than sitting in a low interest savings account. Im watching the videos someone posted up from Khan Academy to learn more about finance but I was wondering if anyone here has some tips right off the bat.We are also meeting with a financial advisor in the next few weeks. Thank you. EDIT: Thank you for the responses. To help with some responses we have over 60K in savings. We plan to keep a percentage of that for our emergency fund but the rest of it we feel is just sitting around.  <response>: Before spending money on a financial adviser which you dont need read the FAQ on how to handle .
