I convinced my wife to put into a brokerage account. You really only need MAYBE a month in cash, everything else can be easily reached in that amount of time.
So go into a taxable investment account? Seems like the only option left besides where I'm currently located. Obviously, the risk is loss of principal, etc. etc. etc.
ETA: If I do this, I might have to move some stuff around for tax efficiency. Doesn't look like the popular options of STAR, Wellesley or Wellington look particularly efficient, but maybe I'm a dumby.

I use Wellesley in a taxable account. Not a lot of downside risk, but the punch of 1/3 stocks and a 2-3% yield. Suits my risk tolerance and I refuse to think of the Roth as an emergency fund.
