The fire making flub has not been edited out

Just checked the paramount app and they left the fire making flub exactly as it happened, and didn’t edit it to not spoil the result. Just in case you were curious and didn’t want to scroll through over an hour of recording.

31M, married, just crossed $100k in my taxable brokerage today, so figured I’d share the setup.
Current brokerage portfolio:

VTI
VXUS
GOOG
ASTS
RKLB

Current auto-invests:
$65/day VTI
$35/day VXUS
$20/day GOOG
$20/day ASTS
$20/day RKLB

Portfolio just hit $100,371 today. I also keep about ~$9k cash sitting in the account currently.

Other assets:
~$150k in 401k accounts (wife and I both contribute 12% and get 4% match)
~$150k home equity
HHI around ~$230k plus ~$15k annual bonus

Strategy is pretty simple:
Broad index funds as the foundation
A few concentrated high-conviction growth bets

In terms of what’s next, I’m trying really hard not to FOMO into random stuff and instead stay disciplined with the strategy that got me here. If I can keep stacking assets consistently for another 10-15 years, and if the space bets actually pan out, I genuinely think early retirement becomes possible.

Just drove by it and there’s a pretty big blaze right next to I-40 by exit 50A near the Biltmore. Seems to be growing quickly. Called 911 and they immediately asked if my call was in reference to the fire on I-40 so they are aware of it.
