WealthTrack had a good interview with Harold Evensky, a noted fee-only financial planner. I had never heard of him but I think a lot of what he had to say makes sense and would appeal to our members. Some snippets:
Edit to add: They assume 3% for inflation.

- Assume that you'll live to 95
- Assumed future equity return of 8.5%
- Assumed future fixed income return of 4.75%
- 80% of equity investments are passive, 20% active
- They expect 2% higher return from active equity investments
- They have a value bias
- They are currently defensive on the bond side - 3.5 duration vs normally 5
- Income portfolio can be dangerous - they use a total return approach
- They use liquidity fund to avoid pressure to sell in bear markets
- They like SPIAs after age 70 if interest rates return to normal, but not now since interest rates are too low
Edit to add: They assume 3% for inflation.
