It's an unexpected windfall, now sitting in my checking account. I have virtually no debt (aside from mortgage and home equity loans), and I'd like to play this money in some interesting way. I already dump a good deal of cash every month into a Vanguard Emerging Markets fund, which seems to be doing quite well (as America struggles, the developing world rises).
Any thoughts?

If you're feeling generous and want to make a novel investment, there's a link in my sig where you can check out the short film and become an Executive Producer on it. My investors (people who contribute $500 of funding or more) get a proportional share of my festival winnings, plus Executive Producer credit. It'll be going to a lot of festivals and the prizes range from $1000 to $10,000 so the payout ought to be good if we do as well as we think we will. So far the script has gotten terrific response and I've got a lot of very experienced crew willing to work for free. My cinematographer's last short went to Cannes!
