Hello! I’m an LMSW in Michigan with 15 years experience in the field doing case management, supervision, and administrative roles. All of my experience has happened in the CMH or VA health system, so needless to say, I am feeling burned out. I have flirted many times with private practice therapy work, but never taken the plunge due to concern about healthcare benefits from my spouse. Is it worth it to make the change? Are we overthinking it?
If only $250, go for VT or VTI.
If you can afford to drop $3000 as an upfront, go for VTWAX or VTSAX. It'll make maxing out your IRA in the future a lot easier as you can buy exact $ amounts and not share amounts.

VTI and chill
All in on Tesla. To Mars!
I actually do think this is a great buying opportunity
