[quote=Anonymous]What's your total financial picture? Combining both your investments & savings, what % combined do you have in equities v. bonds v. cash (money market, etc.)? That number will give you the bigger picture view of where you are and whether, overall, it's too conservative. These days I balance a weakening bond market vs. a shaky equity market v. no interest in cash and still have more than 50% in "cash" to avoid downside risk. Even so continue to average good returns over 1, 5, 10, and 20 yrs. while greatly mitigating losses in big downswings (e.g., down 12% when everything was tanking 30-40% in '08-09 &c.).[/quote]
