My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Would be a bad idea to buy land in a state you're planning to move to? I don't see myself staying here for much longer.

Mike Buy 2-3 houses Where? $100k here would barely be enough for a down payment let alone enough to buy 2 or 3 houses, certainly not anything worth owning.

Long term? The market. It has outperformed just about anything else out there. Unless one has inside info aka Hitlary when at the Rose Law Firm.

Land with development potential.
Wanted to buy Boeing stock about this time last year but did not have the cash in hand. Bummer, as I would have doubled right about now. Still being listed a buy at the moment though.

Houses are still cheap in rural PA. If you are able to do basic maintenance yourself, leveraged single family rentals are about as safe as it gets and you can do better than the stock market. That strategy doesn't work in hot real estate markets. In those markets you have to rely on appreciation for your return and that introduces additional risk.

I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

You don't need money to buy houses. What's the skinny on this?

I’d take the 100 grand to my investment advisor and see what he says. Most likely it would get spread over 2-3 different investments.
