Assorted Thoughts

• A good ratio to think about WHERE to invest your money is something like this: 20-30’s: 25% long term, 25% mid term, 50 % short term 30-40’s: 25% long term, 50% mid term, 25% short term: 45+: 50-75% long term, 25-50% mid term, 0% short term
  • In this context, long term is low risk, mid term is medium risk, short term is high risk
