Ugh ! I don't know how someone who spends as much time as I do studying retirement planning can be as stupid as I am.

I have tried to time the market and failed. I promise myself I will never attempt to do that again. I have come up with an asset allocation plan and I am going to stick to it.

Here it is.

401k/403b:

30% Bonds
15% US small cap
20% international
35% US large cap

Roths:

50% Wellington
50% Star

will add REIT and Emerging market as contributions allow

Taxable accounts:

I-Bonds for first 4 years of retirement

various stocks

I came up with this AA over a period of two years and I have finally implemented it. Now I am going to ignore the market and not check my investments as I am sure the market will tank.
