Re: Older Folk Portfolio 2.0 (OFP 2.0) ... Update
Older Folk Portfolio 2.0 objectives:
This portfolio wants to combine growth, income and capital preservation, especially capital preservation. It's a blend of objectives.
Since this portfolio is a blend of growth and income, I'm using VWELX as a benchmark as it too is a blended growth and income fund. ======================================

Note how most of the CEF's are the smallest holdings. I would prefer to own 2 to 3 times more CEF's at a small percentage than to own a few as a large sized position. I want to spread income risk since we know that most CEF's will cut their distribution, but not at the same time. |
