Beta Tester #4 โ€” Nick

Your Sunday Snapshot โ€” March 30, 2025

๐Ÿ“ก Your Copilot Says

You're 3 months into the role and already averaging $379k/month in bookings. That's solid โ€” especially for a ramp period. Your first commission check landed mid-March ($2,636 net), and February was base-only since you started in January. You're now in the rhythm.

Right now your base ($3,312/mo net) barely covers your burn ($3,346/mo) โ€” you're $34 short on base alone. You are 100% commission-dependent for every dollar of surplus. That's fine today with no rent โ€” but once you add $1,500/mo rent (~June), your base falls $1,534 short of burn every month.

The good news: you're sitting on $157k in assets and zero debt. Most people your age would kill for this position. But none of that money has a job. $42.9k in SPAXX with no label. $104.5k invested with no goal attached. $9.6k in checking with no plan.

Recommendation: Label your money today. SPAXX ($42.9k) = emergency fund ($15k) + ring fund ($27.9k). Checking ($9.6k) = operating cash. VTI + AGG ($104.5k) = long-term wealth โ€” don't touch. Start routing monthly commission surplus into the ring fund. You can hit $30k in ~4 months if you're intentional, because you've already got $27.9k earmarked.

๐Ÿ’ฐ Next Payday

๐Ÿ“… Mid-April โ€” ~$2,269 commission landing

February bookings ($350.6k) convert to cash. When it hits:

Move to ring fund (SPAXX) โ€” grow earmarked $27.9k toward $30k
$1,200
Hold remainder in checking โ€” build buffer before move-out
$1,069

๐Ÿ“š Learn โ€” What You Own & What's Out There

What You Currently Hold

VTI Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF โ€” $77,354
What it is: The broadest US stock index fund. Holds 4,000+ stocks โ€” large, mid, and small cap. One fund, entire US market.
Good for: Long-term wealth building (5+ years). Low cost (0.03% expense ratio). Set it and forget it.
Your fit: This is a great core holding. You don't need to change anything here. If you only ever owned one equity investment, this would be the one most advisors would recommend.
AGG iShares US Aggregate Bond ETF โ€” $27,174
What it is: Broad US bond market โ€” government + corporate bonds. Lower volatility than stocks, pays income.
Good for: Stability and diversification. Balances out the risk of VTI. Acts as a cushion during stock market drops.
Your fit: At your age, some would say 17% in bonds is conservative. But given you're saving for a ring and a move, having a stable chunk makes sense right now. Revisit the stock/bond mix after your big expenses are behind you.
SPAXX Fidelity Government Money Market โ€” $42,940
What it is: A money market fund โ€” basically a high-yield savings account inside Fidelity. Currently earning ~4.5% yield. Instant access.
Good for: Short-term savings, emergency fund, goal parking. No risk, high liquidity.
Your fit: This is perfect for your emergency fund ($15k) and ring fund ($27.9k). Don't move this into stocks โ€” it has a job. The 4.5% yield means it's earning ~$160/mo while you save. That's free money.

US StocksVTI$77,35449%

You're actually more diversified than most people your age. You have stocks, bonds, and cash. The question isn't "what should I buy?" โ€” it's "does each dollar have the right job?"

Bottom line: You don't need to buy anything new right now. Your VTI is one of the best long-term holdings that exists. Your AGG adds stability. Your SPAXX is earning solid yield while you save for goals. The only thing missing is labels โ€” tell each dollar what its job is.

Once the ring and move are behind you, the natural next move would be adding international exposure (VXUS) or increasing your VTI allocation. But that's a future conversation.

This is education, not advice. The copilot shows you what exists and how it maps to your goals โ€” you decide what to do with it.
