The strategy of holding 1-3 years of expenditures in very liquid assets (i.e. money market/short-term bond) and the balance in stocks and bonds is not new. What seems to be a twist to me is the concept of not rebalancing between the three pools of money for 7 years.
Has anyone critically studied this approach and critiqued it? On the surface it seems reasonable. But is it any better than yearly rebalancing? Has anyone done a comparison?
