Have not worked in 2 months other than a couple calls because it’s slow. At a small advisory shop. Should I be worried?

Worried? No. Pro life tip, there’s no benefit in worrying, ever. Better to act than react. You’re getting paid to do nothing. Start applying and interviewing. Make that your full time job. Worst case scenario you get cut and get severance/unemployment. Control what’s within your ability. Life’s too short my friend. Best of luck

Is it totally weird to request another meeting after getting a job offer to make sure it's a right fit? 🤔

I've noticed that sometimes I still have lingering questions. ❔

I've been burnt out by toxic work environments, so I don't want to make another mistake. 🙄

How would you handle this logistics of this meeting? (Timing - after the offer but with time before you start? How to phrase the reason why?)

Thanks! 🔅☺️

What’s the general guidance on the order to maximize retirement contributions for tax benefits for an normal individual and for a self employed/small business owner before moving to taxable accounts or alternate vehicles like cash value life policies?
I’ve seen for individual: match trad 401k->match roth 401k->max roth IRA->max trad IRA->max trad 401k->max roth 401k->max HSA
For self employed: max SEP IRA/solo 401k->max roth IRA->max trad IRA->max HSA
