Naive question: How many yearly billable hours are reasonable for a good balance of work and home. I have a young child and don't want to miss out on important moments.

I am coming from public service so billables are 100% new to me. Any insight is appreciated.

My employer 401k and my personal IRA are both managed by Vanguard. I just realized how much my vanguard 2050 retirement 401k plan (VFIFX) is underperforming compared to the SP500 last 10 years.

Help me think through this. We want a new construction in the MD DC VA area. Is it better to go to one of these neighborhoods where builders are building (1.7 mill) or to demolish a old house (1.5 or 1.6 maybe?) and hire a builder? Am I correct to assume in the 1st case I don’t pay a mortgage until it’s built, but in the second I’ll be paying the mortgage all year while it’s being built?? I feel like even if the neighborhood case is more expensive on paper, it may be cheaper in the long run???
