Why would you pay someone to manage your 401k? They are still working with the same handful of funds. If you have absolutely no idea what to do, just use your appropriate target date fund and you will be fine.

Yeah.. as EY1 said. Don’t spend money on that. Those fees add up and you really don’t move those allocations around all that much. Also a lot of those funds already charge fees to essentially do the same within those funds.

Use the target date fund and if you want it a little more aggressive choose a later date. Then do a bit of research as you have time. This is important stuff to know.

This unit is special, very rare (we’ve rented in the area for 10 yrs and know the local market well). Should we go for it?

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?
