Exactly, so in my example and for me I don't really expect my non AA cash account to be more than 5% of investment assets (if I were including it in investment assets for calculation purposes), is there really a major difference between 47.5/52.5 and 50/50 for retirement success?

However, I want guarantees for the purposes in which I intend to use these monies and yes there is also some psychology there that these monies are 100% "safe".
