Hi everyone,
I could sure use some input regarding the bond section of our investments. They are all in the non-taxable accounts. They represent 60% of our investment portfolio, and consist of:
50% Vanguard TIPS fund
50% Vanguard Intermediate Treasuries fund
The other 40% of our investment portfolio is:
60% Vanguard Total Stock Market Index
32% Vanguard FTSE All-world ex-US
8% Vanguard FTSE All-World ex-US small cap
With all that has been going on in the news (mostly, over on the Boglehead Forum), I am feeling a bit apprehensive about treasuries. I am even thinking about gradually putting our funds into Wellsley. It sure would be easier for our heirs when we cross the metaphorical great waters.
We are 65 and 67 years old.
I am wondering - what are your concerns? How are you addressing them? Do you have any suggestions for me? I would really appreciate your contributions to this thread. Thank you!
