Keep the 3 months set aside as your "emergency fund". Take 20 bucks and buy Dave Ramsey's book "The Total Money Makeover" Should help you out a lot. Easy read.
Did you even read his post? He has no debt. Amazes me how many people blindly recommend this book to people.
To the OP: Hope this serves as a lesson not to come to a forum to ask for investment advice.
Invest in an S&P 500 Index Fund or Total Stock Market Fund (Vanguard) if you aren't going to seek professional advice.

I have a few thousand in an S&P 500 replica mutual fund, can get money out of it at any time within a couple days. Have earned a few hundred off of it since I set it up rather than have it sit in savings.

Not to mention that the book is available for free at any public library, so no need to spend $20 lining Dave’s pockets.
