Hello friends....
I am 64 yrs old and preparing for retirement in the next 5-6 months. I am, at the moment primarily in cash, however I have created a model portfolio that I believe will work for me in the long-term.... but as Donald Rumsfeld once said "We don't know what we don't know". I would like reflections on this model and observations that I may have missed. It would break out as about 35% domestic and foreign stocks, and about 60% fixed income (primarily intermediate term bonds). The funds that I am looking at are: DODIX (or perhaps THOPX), FTBFX, VWINX, VSEQX, FPURX, VEIPX, and am currently holding VWELX and PONAX.
