Hooray! At age 30, you now have a stable income, have paid off all high-interest debt, and have established
several months' worth of income in savings. You are ready to begin saving for retirement? Under a standard rule
of thumb, how much should you put toward stocks and how much toward bonds?
100% in stocks
80% in stocks, 20% in bonds
60% in stocks; 40% in bonds
50% in stocks: 50% in bonds
30% in stocks: 70% in bonds
