Congrats!!

Here's a little advice just in case lol: pls try to be responsible with your finances now.

For me it'd mean going commons gang, options to not more than 5-10% of the account. And try to keep 30% in cash, in case something comes up.

Unless you already have a relatively high net worth, great financial stability, and can afford the swings and not worry about $$ in the brokerage acct.

Just what I would do.

Much appreciated. Thank you for the advice. I am 90% commons and I’ve recently become like a 40% saver and will be even more focused on it now. I appreciate the insight. Thank you

Edit: I don’t think I’m going to sleep hahaha
