Should just make this a sticky. Its almost backdoor roth time. I have a roth at VG and also a taxable MM there. If I remember right, I open a new regular IRA, move the MM to the regular and then "convert" to the currently open Roth???

Generally I think you got it, but honestly every year I just Google “vanguard IRA to Roth conversion.” They have a step by step laying out the process for you.

Also, if you did this last year you shouldn’t need to open a new traditional IRA. You should just have the same IRA with a zero balance that you can fund directly and then convert that.

That sounds like solid advice, especially about snagging that free money from your employer's 401k match - it's like hitting the jackpot without even buying a ticket!
And diving into a Roth IRA after maxing out that match? Genius move. Tax-free growth and more investment options? Sign me up! Plus, starting early means you'll reap the benefits down the road when you're living the high life in retirement.
If you're hungry for more investing wisdom, I stumbled upon this blog about VC NYC firms that might offer some fresh insights: waveup.com/blog/venture-capital-firms-nyc/. Give it a read and see if it sparks any lightbulb moments.
