On rays show today he talked about the refinements and the nuts and bolts of managing the buckets that will be discussed in his new book.
The problem with the 1st book was it didnt cover the manipulation between buckets in much detail and you were kind of left to your own design.
So heres a little bit of what will be in the book:
Value Averaging: Lets say you need an average of 7% a year long term to make the numbers work. well at the end of year 1 your up 7%, year 2 up 9% and year 3 up 25%.
You sell off everything over that yearly 7% average and move it to bucket 2.
Okay you say what if your down in a year and below 7%. Well now his plan is to have you take some money from bucket 2 and buy back in to the stock bucket again. Havent really followed this thru yet as ill wait for the book and the details..
