If you are thinking of starting a law practice or growing one with little or no capital, you need to get the book, “Starting & Growing a Law Practice without Breaking the Bank.
It was written based on personal experience and research. I started my practice 11 years ago in the middle of the 2008/2009 recession with about $500 and I have grown the practice significantly over the years using affordable and available resources.
I also coach solo practitioners and small firm attorneys. https://www.amazon.com/Starting-Growing-Practice-Without-Breaking/dp/1099523303

Unless you're planning on retiring in the next 5 years, ride it out. The market always recovers, and your 55+ y/o self will thank you for not trying to time buying back into the stocks.
I just don’t see the market ripping like crazy in the near future so not sure I’ll be losing out on much equity market returns
I'm doing this (taking a defensive investing position).
I've rebalanced from 95% equities back in Jan to only about 40% equities now, shifting a chunk out of equities every 2-3 months. I'm about 5% up for the year as opposed to the 0-1% gain YTD on most indexes currently and the slight paper loss some people are seeing.
Agree with you that the market probably has low odds of going up further. But we could both very well be wrong so need to keep some equity to participate in potential upside. I'm comfortable with 30-40% equities in today's environment and sleep better with that mix.
I'm still putting money into the market with every paycheck but allocating towards treasuries instead of equities.
Howard Marks of Oaktree wrote a great book on this topic called "Mastering the Market Cycle". I'm halfway through and highly recommend.
Well the bust is going to be in debt market which is like 7 times the size of equity market
