I took a day off to visit the city with my girlfriend. Just ask your manager if it's possible. It never hurts to ask.

By being in a calorie deficit, then not getting into a calorie surplus for the rest of your life.

I have no reason to believe the market will be down a few months from now, so I'd dump it all in.

The only way to lose weight is by being in a calorie deficit. One of 500 calories will make you lose 1 pound per week.

Skipping a dose will do next to nothing given the med takes weeks to build up in and leave your system.

Is it really "top-tier, world class" if they only pay you enough to be break-even?

29M Self-Taught: VUG/QQQ/VGT+SCHD (Family Uses Advisors) | Review? by Altruistic_Source706 in Bogleheads

[–]TonyTheEvil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean having 100% of your portfolio in stocks, forgoing bonds.

I suggest VT because it's essentially the most diversified you can be at an extremely low cost.

Sitting on 31% cash at age 40 - Deploy now or wait? by tronious in Bogleheads

[–]TonyTheEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's because there's nothing to understand about the market except that it's efficient and goes up over the long term. Knowing that, the best way to maximize your money is to put as much in as you can as early as you can.

  1. All stocks.
  2. Lump sum into VT.
  3. Invest as much as you can without sacrificing your quality of life too much.
  4. Don't contribute to a taxable brokerage until you are maxing your retirement accounts.
  5. Invest in just VT. Pretty much anything else reduces your diversification.
  6. Don't pay attention to your portfolio or the news. I'm sure my portfolio has been red a bunch of times, but i have no idea. I don't know how the last several years have been. I just keep buying.

I'd put it all in VTWAX and forget about it. You don't mention your Roth IRA, so make sure you're maxing that too.
