Thank you for all the responses to the thread.
Seems like the consensus for "long-term" (15-20 years) is get in and stop trying to time the market.
The returns I'll lose sitting and waiting are worth more than trying to time the bottom of the market.
Keep some of my savings and if and when the market crashes, reinvest.

If going all in will cause you to lose sleep you can also DCA in over the next 3-6 months. That may be a good middle ground.
