<prompt> Human: My wife and I are going to be running from terrible school districts and purchasing another house next year - most likely in the summer. Were debt free excluding our house. We have roughly 30,000 in savings at the moment, and Im not content to just let it lie making 0.01 interest, although Id rather not lose any of it before next summer. CDs are not really an option because of the short term. Ive thought about investing a portion of it through a robo-investment app, such as Wealthfront, but would it really be worth it for such a short amount of time? Also, Im a novice to investing and dont really know how liquid that money would be when we need to use it for a down payment. Any thoughts or ideas are greatly appreciated.EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the advice! I have put the money in an Ally savings account with a 1.30 APY that includes a 100 bonus if the balance is 15,000 for 3 months.  <response>: Do not invest the money if youre going to need it next year. Put it in a 1 savings account, that is your best and safest option.
