My house in south LA county was purchased 12 years ago, and has $1,000/month mortgage payment. To rent the house today would cost $4,000/month. I was stupid enough to sell 4 investment properties before the pandemic, and lucky enough to have kept 2 houses. Had I kept all 6, I could have...

Look at the asset allocation, it's 94% equities and 6% bonds. As a target date fund, it follows a "glide path" where the bond component increases as you get closer to retirement age. TDF's are quite popular in 401k plans, even for those in their 20's.

Thing about leaders who groom their eldest son is, sometimes the eldest son die early and you're suddenly stuck with the young one who you weren't as strict with. Look at Hafez al-Assad, who was actually an effective strongman of Syria and worked to groom his eldest, Bassel al-Assad for the job...

No, this is a TDF (Target Date Mutual Fund).

This is the Gelson's at Jeffery & Alton? Will drop by this week and have a look. I recall a poke bar but not a sushi bar...

The asset allocation is appropriate for someone in their 20s, or older folks looking for more aggressive portfolio. TDF's increase bond allocation as you get closer to the specified/retirement date. John C Bogle suggested on taking future realized value of social security as count it toward...
