Discussion on bond performance over the last 12 months.  Review of the connection between bond returns and changes in interest rates.  And, why have long bonds done so poorly.

Four and a half years ago, I bought a home in Florida for all cash.  I then got an 80% loan and invested the money in the market.  Numbers on performance for that investment and what I am doing next.

Discussion of market trade offs.  More stocks means better returns in the long run (10 years plus).  However, this can cause more volitility in the short run (Less than 10 years).  When building a plan for retirement you need to think about long term returns, you concern over market drops and how much cash you need in retirement.

Update on our recent trip to Colorado!
