Whose asset allocation model is that, I2?

For me, I'm in no individual bonds, I'm in about 3-4% bond funds and I have about 6-7% in net cash (which is the largest amount of cash I've held in maybe 20 or more years). I'm 89-91% in individual stocks including a small exposure to stock (equity) funds.

Where might you be vs. that model, given that you are a senior also?

Asset allocation seems to me to be such an individual thing depending on one's goals, one's risk tolerance and the changing relationship between bonds (bond yields) and stocks, that a general model not only doesn't work, but it doesn't really give a general indication of where one "should" be in life.
