That being said, I think one of the first and most important decisions that I need to make is asset allocation. Given his financial situation, do you have any recommendations on how I should allocate his assets (feel free to recommend specific funds)? Here's some useful links: FundAdvice.com: "The ultimate buy-and-hold strategy" http://www.fundadvice.com/articles/buy-hold/the-ultimate-buy... The original link has disappeared. Luckily I downloaded a copy of the paper, so I was able to UL it to my mediafire account. 2 page synopsis of "Asset Class Performance is Unpredictable" http://www.jennisondryden.com/view/upload?docURL=/WDocs/3862... http://www.mediafire.com/file/cf5iiuyjidm/MultiAssetCH.pdf These papers have suggestions for asset classes. They discuss more than just the allocations, though. http://ssrn.com/abstract=962461 Guyton/Klinger Decision Rules. http://schulmerichandassoc.homestead.com/Using_Decision_Rule... As far a specific funds----- fundadvice has an article with a number of candidates. I started with his list and made my picks primarily on the lowest ER among similar funds. |
