You know you're a consultant when...
I've worked at the same engineering firm for 4 years. I'm currently making $161k with only a $750 bonus, but excellent vacation (4 weeks, cash out anytime, rolls over indefinitely), 45 hours a week. I have an interview with a recruiter at Guidehouse this week for a Technical Project Manager role. It seems to be focused in the government space and requires a security clearance. What sort of salary and benefits could I expect for this sort of role at Guidehouse?

OP - I just went through this exact same dilemma. And made the mistake of just sitting on a lot of cash for a while. I finally sat down, did the research on index funds and ETFs that I was comfortable having in my portfolio and decided which platforms to buy them in (I have accounts at a few). Vanguard has some great funds for a core portfolio at low cost. Fidelity provides some target date funds if that's your thing. Decide what your goals are then find the right pieces that fit.

1% of what? Purchase price or cash-on-cash? Big difference in the analysis. Also depends on your market, appreciation-heavy markets won't have the same kind of cash flow as low appreciation markets.
Put that into crypto instead
D1: How's Fundrise?

Wealthfront and Betterment are a waste of money. You're better off using the Lazy Three-Fund Portfolio. Google it.

I just realized OP said cash flow - my suggestions were more for building wealth/retirement funds.
BA1: I'm not that impressed. It's an interesting concept but the returns on the REITs are 5-6%; I did invest a bit in their IPO.
Agnc pays 1% per month
Returns on REITs are 5-6% but you can buy a 5% yielding property yourself and leverage 4:1 and get 20%. Margin debt is limited to 2:1. Actual property is the way to go
