has i think 5 years of expenses in tips and money markets, the rest a mix of stock and bond funds based upon his age.

Great approach.

its nice to be really wealthy.

IMHO anyone who's not a good full-time investor should adopt something similar. They might not have 5 years in money markets, but depending on their job/family/age at least half-year to 1 year. And the rest like Graham says bonds/stocks. House also should be in the mix even if now this is quite unpopular.

What about using "legendary" value investors such as Third Avenue or Baupost Group? They seem to get good returns year in year out
