There are some non-financial issues with being in
equities in late retirement — although there's a case to be made that staying on top
of this helps retain intellectual facilities a bit if we look at Warren Buffet and his dreadful diet, looking at the state some people get into as they get older I'm not sure they should be licensed to drive an
equity portfolio unless they can sit on their hands and let that nice Mr Vanguard sort
out the
rebalancing shenanigans...
