Honestly, keep it liquid in a savings account for emergencies or for when you find an opportunity to invest in a business or yourself.
This book is a must read. Although many people here hate it because it doesn’t follow the traditional path.
You’re way ahead of the game so far. Please don’t squander it away for 40 years for a rainy day.
I am with you!
This whole business structure is just time-wasting, and, in fact, demands and rewards time wasting!
I hate it so much. I was almost fired once for taking a 'it's too nice to work inside' day off - even though I'd worked for 4 years there, following all the rules. I won't give that kind of power to anyone again.
Life's too short.
You might want to read UnScripted, by MJ DeMarco. I cannot praise it enough for practical advice on escaping this shit.

To hell with the Career! Identify a problem you learned in the years you have put in so far, design a solution and build it up while helping your son grow too!
The ugly truth is - careers are an illusion used to convince people to use up their most precious years. So they can retire at 70, die a few years later with no time to use the money they saved.
Please do not look at this change as a negative thing! Join a group of entrepreneurs (real ones - not some MLM bs), learn how to a) find a problem to solve, b) create a solution c) listen to your customers d) maintain control.
Takes about three years to take a viable idea to reality - your son will still be young, and you will not have missed the chance to spend time with him. And if you succeed, you'll make more money than your husband :D
Surround yourself with people who do the things you need to succeed with your new focus

Stay-At-Home Parenting is not a prison sentence! It is an opportunity to break free!
Read stories of success, surround yourself with cheesy inspiration to keep moving forward. Whatever it takes - it's a process, start now and make this your "Eff this! I want a second house in the Cayman Islands" moment.
Write down your dreams, how much they cost, list the steps you need to obtain that money, and put dates on them. Then, go!
And good luck! You will fail at least once - regroup and do it again.
Unlike most things in life where one bad apple spoils the bunch - with entrepreneurship, one good crop feeds you for life.
