[quote=Anonymous]I'm facing a similar situation. I think it comes down to two questions: how much do you [I]need[/I] to have for a down payment in two years? and how firm is that two year timeline? If you the need is close to or at the $140K then just put it in a CD or money market fund and get ~4% to keep up with inflation. If you only need $100K and you can stretch that two years if the market is down then you can up the risk. And there's no reason you have to go 100% one way or another - you could lock in 3.8-4% returns with $70K and invest the balance[/quote]
