Mark - based on what you outlined, I'd definitely consider the G Fund for a bond position. As always, it depends on one's own personal situation and needs. As a retired financial services industry professional, I use the TIAA Traditional Fixed Annuity as the bond position in my total asset allocation strategy (similar to the comment from Jo Bo). I try to keep my investments simple, as many on HD do as well.

John - thanks for sharing on a topic that is important - or I should say, "what is important to you and your time." :) My wife and I walked out of a theater production about a year ago. It was part of a series of shows, but that one just wasn't engaging for us. (nothing political or headline grabbing, just not enjoyable to us) We snagged a wonderful cocktail each around the corner at a local establishment prior to an enjoyable dinner out. Time was well spent on that alternative evening path.
