Hello Gang, I’m on the business side for Walmart right now. Walmart Global Tech recently offered me a role to move to the San Bruno office, but I’d be taking a demotion from L6 to E5. YOE: 8, COMP(200k base, 25% bonus, 100k RSU). Is this competitive in the bay? I have Doordash and Instacart in the pipeline, but no final offers yet.

Agree on dump it. You’re playing the long game. Take the stress and emotion out of it, put it in, and don’t look back.
I would at least invest most now. If you want to keep a little to buy a dip, go ahead but what makes you think a dip will take the market where it is now? It is essentially trying to time the market.
I get it. If the market dips you look brilliant but if the market goes up 20 then drops 15 and you buy, you are losing. I just invest right away because I don’t know any better
I say dump it. Otherwise you might forget or wait forever for a dip.

I’ve always heard that, especially in tax advantages accounts, you are better off not holding cash and investing right away.

Everything is a good idea if you can time the market. But can you!
I would add that if you hold any bonds in your portfolio, many don’t. I do because I am old. If you do, you could hold some in the Roth to take advantage of a dip. It might make sense if you already hold the bonds. I would rather not just sit on cash for that purpose
