Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Like many people here I have an asset allocation that I periodically adjust to keep it in the area I have chosen. Also, like many I have some buckets (CD's, MM funds, short term assets) where I keep dollars I will need in the next 3-5 years.
These bucket dollars are used to ensure that one can temporarily ride out market down turns without having to 'sell low' in order to finance one's chosen lifestyle.
My question is this - Do you include this bucket money in your AA or do you ignore it for purposes of balancing your investment AA?
