[quote=Anonymous]I work for an international institution (world bank) and have a few options for my retirement investments. I am 40 and went for a very agressive 100% stocks in the past 18 months which has served me well (70% SP500, 20% R2000 and 10% emerging markets). Now that i have turned 40, i am looking at rebalancing portfolio a bit. conventional wisdom would have me do 10 to 20% in bonds now. BUT, i have this other option from work: a guaranteed real 3% return, meaning inflation+3% which generally means ~4.5/5% returns, and no fees. I will admit my ignorance, bonds return are so low, it seems my real 3% is a good safe alternative to bonds. Is that correct?[/quote]
