Hi Reddit. I need your advice. My mom passed away after a battle with a progressive disease and it was painful to watch her go. It turned out that i was (one of) the beneficiary of her stock market investments. It's about $100K worth of stock.
At the behest of her accountant, i asked that the "prices be moved up to the date of her passing". I don't exactly know what that meant (it was explained to me that it would be as if i bought the shares the day she passed away).
What should i do now? Should i keep it invested or just sell it all because i don't want to mess this up. Is there a 101 level course on this?
Just to clarify, i don't intend to blow this money. I'm not in any urgent need of it, i have no big debt nor any loans to pay off. I'm not interested in a new car or a home or traveling or anything like that (i might buy a new video card for my computer but that's about it).
