42 M - Thinking of selling high
I’ve been skeptical of the rocket ship growth/returns for at least a year+ (thankfully I mostly held in), but I’m at a point with my main brokerage holdings up between 80% - 200% (glad I bought Intel near the bottom!!)
Obviously this growth may continue, but feel like taking some strong earnings and move into SCHD or similar funds.
For some context:
$285k combined income (I make 90%) as my wife is working to scaled her Diabetes/Nutrition business)
$140K left on mortgage (2.37%) - only debt
Retirement accounts at about $700k
College 529 for 10/7 year olds on track to cover a majority of school (thankfully family has helped)
Aging parents, could potentially inherit (not banking on or expecting ) $2-4M
Concerns: In a new role (over my skis and working 12-14 hrs + 8-10 hrs on weekend). Concerned I could just flame out or… fail
