[quote=Anonymous]Financial analysis suggests that you should just put whatever you are going to put in the market in the market when you have it because over the long haul the market goes up--so time in the market outweighs timing the market. But it sounds like you might struggle psychologically with that. Dividing it up and putting it into an automatic enroll cycle might work better for you--it may also make it more likely you will continue on the auto-invest cycle indefinitely. Don't forget to keep an emergency fund though and to evaluate if you have enough cash to weather the ups and downs of the market. Buying a house changes your emergency fund needs as you have to anticipate potential home maintenance costs coming down the pike, as does having kids.[/quote]
