Greetings Norbert :) ES, I'm going to hold you to this. I have no problem at all with your post. I can't verify all the math but the presentation was great. You spoke to the points of the argument and kept it at that level. You stated your opinion in a mature way. That's all anyone can ask and we g...

Greetings John :) From our investigations, rebalancing adds nothing except in times of high valuations. And even then, it adds very little. The big payoff is from sitting on the sidelines, waiting for conditions to improve. TIPS and ibonds make this possible. Otherwise, we would have to pay a lot o...

Greetings John :) Peteyperson's original idea was to use up his entire TIPS holdings if necessary. If the bear market were to continue, he still would be satisfied. He would have come through the first ten years OK. [But not everyone would agree. That is the reason that I have considered other ladd...

Greetings Norbert :) ES, I'm disappointed with this line of thinking. I'm not sure how you could be disappointed in my asking that plans put forward here be taken seriously and responded to in a constructive manner? :? However, restricting responses to rah-rah-rah, no matter what idea is presented,...
