How much are you looking to eventually withdraw? If you want to live off this, that ain't happening. If you want to buy a fancy coffee or two a month, that's doable.

You can open up a brokerage account with this one deposit going into an index fund, and just leave it alone. You can check now and then to ensure there's nothing untoward.

My goal once I am back in the workforce (in school right now) is to open up a taxable putting $500/mo into FZROX and just leave it on auto pilot, check back in after 30 years. This on top of the regular suite of retirement advice. I figure it would be a nice gift for a deserving relative.
