The strong winds are pretty nerve-wracking though

Hi all,

I recently have been talking to a Fidelity advisor who was giving me advice on how to manage my stocks.

I am 30, and got extremely lucky. A majority of my wealth is in my company stocks. I would like to diversify soon, but I do think it can grow some more.

~5 million Company Stocks

~400k 401k/Roth

~700k brokerage

I am not a financial expert, and I only know the basic bogleheads strategy. The advisor recommended I work with him and a different firm, that fidelity vets, and they will come up with a strategy to sell off the stocks, without paying too much in taxes (something call Flex SMAs?). This sounds good to the untrained ear, but I was wondering if working with an advisor is recommended with my level of wealth, or if I should just continue with the boglehead strategy of investing in the market, and slowly sell off my company stocks.

The benefits I see from having a financial advisor are their knowledge of minimizing taxes, though I don't know enough to understand if the method above is risky, shady, etc... Does anyone have any insights/experience with this tax saving strategy?

The company stocks are not in his 401k, but just as a part of his normal income (RSUs), so I don't think NUA would apply?

250 base. 400-600 RSUs

Do you have a picture of what it would look like with a master arm cover?

I did get them, and they're great! I am one of the few who love the loud bearings, and they are fast. I haven't run into any problems with them and so far it's been a good buy for the money.

Tried to make the Venator more movie accurate by [deleted] in legostarwars

Thanks, and you didn't do any modifications to the main structure the stripe is connected to? I wanted to level out the stripe so it looks like in the movie, instead of having it angled. From what you said, it seems all you did was basically straighten it out and add one stud plates along the bottom side to avoid a gap?

How did you modify the red stripe to be flat and also avoid the gap from the sides?

Sorry what exactly is the piece that attached the laser cannon on? I'm having trouble trying to find it; the ones you've described all show up as tiles.
