I'm somewhat n your situation, lost both my parents last year. Got the inheritance, all invested in various things. Dad always played with it, but never did much. Over the years, what i learned from watching the markets is to never really fear a big drop. If anything, I'd like to get enough cash saved up to welcome a big drop. Buy it at that time and then cash out as it recovers. I'm not too far away from that now, probably another year or so. The market ALWAYS recovers! There's too many people with their lives invested in the markets to allow them to plummet and stay there. Hell we're almost back to the point we were last week, before this all started. It ain't even been a week yet. It'll be up over 12k before the end of the month. May not stay there, but it will cross the line.
