VOO below $500 again? Or just bite the bullet and lump sum now?

I'm graduating college this semester with $60,000 in cash saved from working part-time jobs. I never really thought about investing until a few weeks ago when my friend showed me his profits from trading call options on the stock market.

Options are too risky for me so I was thinking to invest in ETFs. Looking at the price history of VOO, it seems I missed out on the recent pullback below $500. I see alot of people saying the market is in an AI bubble and overdue for a crash.

Would you lump sump $60,000 into 100 shares of VOO, if you were in my shoes? I'm 25 so I know that starting right now is good for compounding later.
