45.5 yrs old, intending to ER at 50 (if I make it that long). For the bond portion of my portfolio, is a bond fund ok, vs buying individual bonds (treasury directs etc).
Also, what I have been reading, intermediate term bonds is about as long term as I should consider now; and really should just do short term(1-5 yr?)?
Also, what percentage of the porfolio would everyone recommend in bonds? I'm currently at ~40%. Too much?
