<prompt> Human: It has been two months and we still havent found a new house! Currently living with my parents and going a little stir crazy. Obviously we could find a house any day now hopefully and then will need to use the money as a down payment. Im just wondering if the financial whizzes at rpersonalfinance have any suggestions for something I could do with the money in the meantime on such a short turn around? If I had known it was going to take this long to find a new house, I could have put the money in a short term CD, but I figure its too late for that now.Any ideas?  <response>: High-yield savings account is the best you can do.EDIT: if you want to be gambley, go to the closest casino, stick it all on black. You might have 50k for a house, or you might have 0. If youre not willing to gamble, savings account is for you!
