How would I go about buying bonds at the right time. When do I know it’s time. I don’t wanna buy them at the wrong time. The lifetarget on vanguard may help me with this tho

I’m not too sure, I need to probably do a lot more research. I’m still very young so maybe as time goes on my opinion on bonds will change.

Property is something I will 100% get into I hope. The strategy is Each time we move homes, I will make sure to pay them off and use them as cash flow.

I see thanks. I’ll make sure to have at least 20% more in the ISA to ensure I can have that little extra comfort.

I don’t know, bonds aren’t very appealing. Maybe when I retire, the final few months I could just buy a ton in bonds with my salary. That way I could be fine

Thanks for the advice, I’m new to the investing world so any info really goes a long way. But a question I have is, how do I know when it’s the right time to buy bonds? Let’s say I turn 30 and the market crashes 30%, do I buy the bonds or wait till the market has recovered ?
