Interested in other’s thoughts:
Earlier this year I finally pulled the trigger and rolled my 401k from former employer to my Vanguard IRA. I moved the $ into Wellesley and left some in MM settlement fund until I could figure out next steps. I feel like it may be time to reallocate with a new year approaching. This is my IRA allocation as of of 12/16/20:
MM - 13% (vmmxx)
Bonds - 19% (vbtlx)
Intl stock - 8% (vtiax)
Stock - 36% (vtsax)
Wells - 24% (vwiax)
DH and I also have a small rIRAs, his TSP and and about 10% of overall portfolio in taxable CDs, MM and savings for emergencies, vehicle replacement, etc..
I plan to use the MM $ in IRA for Roth conversions and possible income over the next few years.
I’m just not sure if I should just leave Wellesley as is or reallocate among the Intl, total stock and bonds. It seems a bit redundant to keep in Wellesley, although it does help keep my stock/bond mix within my comfort range.
DH and I don’t need an aggressive portfolio and prefer to keep things simple. We just need to keep pace with inflation, although we have enjoyed watching our net worth grow since we retired in 2016, but don’t want to be greedy.
So, I’d like to hear what others think? What would you do?
Thanks everyone!
