    %%
    80% is way too much if I listened to my broker/CFP, he said I should keep the percentage = 100 - my age, in stocks and the rest in bonds.

    But I ignored him because if he is right, he would have retired to Monte Carlo and not charged me 1% NAV. :caution::caution:

    I followed Munger but couldn't emulate his successes. :banghead:

    I just noticed you are a Hongkonger.

    My opinion, short answer, for a newbie with meager capital, on #1 is don't. You are better off betting on horses:

    As for #2, I already gave you my opinion.

  4. %%
    MR Munger sounds better;
    but even the most+ best mutual funds dont do 100%, 1-3%[edit cash-money market] for redemptions \
    so no panic selling.
    LOL. Sounds like to much bonds/ if using a good budget like Dave Ramsey Budget.
    Planned selling is different:
    I like well managed money market, much more than bonds, but that's personal:D:D
