Date: June 3rd, 2026 8:34 PM Author: tripping spruce volcanic crater fat ankles Received a pretty sizeable inheritance recently. Thinking about just yolo’ing into VTI. Would keep about $200k in cash. Also will have about 550k in an inherited IRA that I have to withdraw over 10 years so I don’t get murdered on taxes (more so than I do already) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5870940&forum_id=2]#49913956) |

Don’t need the money for anything in the near or medium term — Ultimate goal is to get to early retirement in next 10-12 years so can hold through a downturn |

Date: June 3rd, 2026 10:00 PM Author: Drab Telephone My thought process with $1m would be: 1. Pay off my mortgage (6.49%, $372,000 balance) 2. Money market for liquidity (I’d like $107,000 more than I have now) 3. Kids’ 529s, I’ve got about $8,000 more in contributions this year. 4. DCA into taxable brokerage. Probably over 6 months. |

Date: June 3rd, 2026 10:04 PM Author: tripping spruce volcanic crater fat ankles That sounds reasonable. I hit the Covid interest rate lottery and have a mortgage at 2.6 which I will never pay off early. May use some of the cash to fund 529s as well (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5870940&forum_id=2]#49914122) |
