I won't reveal exactly how much, but I'll say that I went all in on calls + stocks back in December. Didn't sell at the top but sold a little after before the major dip down to 300s. Lost some money trying to time calls in between. I am currently about 75% TSLA. I have small amounts of FUV, AMD, Novonix and a big chunk of ARKK and ARKQ. Not planning on diversifying any further anytime soon.

Taxes: I contacted a CPA recommended by a coworker last week. Sent them everything to get an estimate on how much I owe and also told them they can do my returns next year. I will probably be paying more in taxes that I have made at my job in the last couple of years.

Career/Retirement: I want to eventually work for SpaceX. I am qualified from an education standpoint but cannot work there right now due to ITAR. I like my current job but once I can apply at SpaceX I will. Having this financial cushion makes it easier to move from my current low cost-of-living area to CA. I can "leanFIRE" right now. Probably need another 25%-30% increase in my portfolio to reach proper FIRE.
