Hey, I’ve been reading about investing including the bogleheads forum/wiki for a few months now and wanted some advice on my portfolio. Most of my taxable account is from UTMAs that I haven’t really done anything with until recently which has caused a messy portfolio.
Emergency funds: Currently have too much cash so I included it assets; goal would be six months of expenses (about 60000)
Debt: none
Tax Filing Status: single
Tax Rate: 35% Federal, 2.5% state
Income: about 500k
State of Residence: Arizona
Age: 33
Desired Asset allocation: 100% stocks / 0% bonds
Desired International allocation: 10-20 % of stocks
Total Portfolio: About 1.3 million
Current retirement assets
Taxable
Checking 3.41%
Vanguard Muni MMF (VMSXX) 19.44%
Vanguard Federal MMF (VMFXX) 0.42%
Fidelity Government MMF (SPAXX) 1.58%
Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) 2.13%
Vanguard Total Int. Stock ETF (VXUS) 2.41%
Invesco QQQ trust ETF (QQQ) 11.12%
SPDR DJIA ETF (DIA) 12.65%
SPDR Sp500 ETF (SPY) 12.93%
Microsoft 6.51%

7000 Backdoor Roth IRA
3700 HSA (450 match)
Questions:
1) I have a very stable job and no short term savings goals. I don’t have much experience but I don’t believe I’d ever sell in a downturn (I have a very high risk tolerance in general). Is it reasonable to be 100% in stocks? What should my International allocation be? I was thinking I should aim for 10-20%.
2) I have a lot of cash from selling some high expense/capital gains heavy funds I received in an UTMA. Due to mediocre returns and paid capital gains over the years I don’t have much to pay in taxes after selling these. Should I just put all my cash in Vti/Vxus except for what I need in emergency funds?
3) QQQ, DIA, SPY all have very high capital gains. Should I just keep them and count them towards my total us stock allocation to avoid taxes?
4) The individual stocks I named all have high capital gains. Should I just sell them all at once? If I did I’d have to pay about 50k in taxes. The other stocks I didn’t name I can sell at a loss. I bought these thinking I could beat the market :/.
5) The Cash I list in my HSA is money that goes from my employer to health equity which has very high investment fees. I usually wait until it’s about $1000 until I Transfer to my fidelity hsa. Does this sound reasonable?
6) Should I merge my fidelity and vanguard Roth ira? Or does it matter?
7) My 401k and 457b I try to approximate total market due to no total market fund in my 401k. I aim for 15-20% Fsmax. Is there a better way to achieve this.
8) Considering my salary and retirement account contributions what would be a reasonable amount to put in my taxable account yearly.
Thank you, please let me know if you need any further information.
