My wife has stopped working and I have moved her 401 to vanguard. I have about 20% of her money in mid and small cap funds with the bulk in the 2015 target fund (As I moved her money into vanguard I just wanted it to sit initially in something stable) but I am becoming concerned about the Fed, specifically Yellen and her rookie days ahead (I'm concerned the market is going to take a substantial hit) I cant take another 2008, I'm not that young.
Where to park the bulk of my wifes money?
Our timeline for this is considerable, she cant touch the money for another decade, but I just cant stomach another precipitous drop, its taken 5 years to get back to where we were prior to 2008 and I dont want to do that again.
As I just moved into Vanguard I havent had the time to thoroughly research the various options and I'm afraid with Yellens statements about raising interest rates that a significant drop is looming and I dont currently have the time to research my best options....quite busy these days, so...any thoughts would be appreciated.
Please dont blaze me, I'm just spitballing here.
