I am helping a friend couple with some of their life planning and could use the collective wisdom of this group. The key points are that both are retired and old enough for Medicare and that various guaranteed payments (SS, DB pension, etc) cover living expenses including COLA. There is an additional pot of mid six figures, about 3/4 in 401(k) and 1/4 in IRA/other. They dip into this for ocassional big expenses, mostly vacations that can't be covered from SS/DBP cash flow. They've been paying between 1.5 and 2% to some kind of "money manager" and I'm talking them into getting away from that. They don't have (and don't want to gain) any level of investment sophistication. So, where would you park this money for full autopilot?
