Since my mother informed me that she's getting a 5% or 6% return on her GNMA bonds, I became more interested in bonds going forward. Problem is, there are so many kinds of bonds, in general, I'm a little lost. My primary holding is in Vanguard Wellington (IRA), which is 40% bonds, but, I'd like to add more bonds to my IRA. How do I decide among GNMAs, TIPS, municipal bonds or even Vanguard Total Bond Index fund? Thanks, in advance.
