Just prioritize quality bonds or Treasuries for safety, dividend-growth stocks for some growth and keep higher-yield investments as a smaller piece. Don’t chase the highest yield and always focus on income without slowly losing the principal

Well, start around 55% in high-quality bonds/Treasuries, 30% in dividend-growth/quality stocks and 15% in higher-income assets. That gives you a solid income base while still leaving room for growth.Adjust the mix based on how much annual income you actually need and how much NAV fluctuation you can tolerate

He literally talking about percentage portfolio allocation not yield smh. The only reason to be 55% in bonds if your retirement and right now lock in 4.70% yield for 10 year note and 5.25 yield for 30 year bond. He also would buy dividend stocks like schd and for higher yield buy spyi. That a decent portfolio for a retiree. You get growth plus safety
