Okey dokey Petey. Thanks for your opinion and your respect of others differing opinions.
Have a nice day.

In case anyone is worried, firecalc includes periods of time where valuations were similar to what they are today, even for the S&P 500. The usual 60/40 portfolio survived a 30 year period following those times of high valuations just fine. Of course, that depends on what you mean by 'valuations' and which of the 42000 incompatible means of calculating them you use.
By the way, its my opinion that stocks are overvalued today and that it does matter, but since I dont have or know of any foolproof way to determine 'correct' valuations or what to do exactly that will make a big difference, I just use good asset allocation and stick with it. You might refer to Peteys crystal ball for further instruction, however.
I also wouldnt worry much about 140 year old bond defaults that happened during a civil war in choosing your current day bonds. Unless you think the red states and blue states are about to have at each other
