I’m up 52% YTD without any tech in my portfolio. I think I’ll pass.

I have been riding the tech wave for awhile since they rely on RSUs for compensation. So far my major ones are on Apple, Broadcom, and some AI companies.

Home reno financing question. Have a big project coming up in the $120-150k range. Funding sources are:
- 90k from a heloc around prime
- 10k from a credit card that offers promo checks at 2-3% for 12-18 months
- 375k in a brokerage
- 5-6k per month cash that I can put towards the project, loans, or brokerage

I don't want to stop funding the brokerage because my FIRE plan is less numbers based than "hoard like dragon until it's enough" but maybe I should... How would you optimize?
