Are you sure you included dividends in the returns (total returns is price change + divs)?
Wellington is already 60/40. If you are implying that you used VWELX as the 60%, and added another 40% of fixed, that is way under-weighting stocks from the typical '4% rule' approach (~75/25). You'd be ~ 35/65, a long way from 75/25.

Wellington is more or less a 60/40. I used the annual total returns on it as the basis for the analysis. Also - the 3 - 3 1/2% withdrawal rate seems to be in synch with the Fidelity retirement simulator in a bad market to age 100.
