About 55/45, can go down to 50/50
75/20/5

30/69/1. Missing potential equity returns that wouldn't significantly make my life better is fine with me. Missing or delaying a fun, active life waiting for a stock market recovery is not.
That's about where I am but with more cash and CD's than bonds. But I am going on 77 with a disabled DW. No debt, no pension, but a good amount of SS. SS covers about 2/3 of annual spending.
