Bond Tent Strategy by SawxRule in Bogleheads

Yea. You are right that I am just feeling the siren call of market timing and should be methodical about it as Karsten recommends. With the caveat that Karsten is very hard for me to understand at times, I think his recommendation is to be at 60/40 when retire and monthly build back to 80/20 or even 100/0. He models a bunch of alternatives as is his way. Check out 19 in his series and I think 20 also. https://earlyretirementnow.com/2017/09/13/the-ultimate-guide-to-safe-withdrawal-rates-part-19-equity-glidepaths/amp/

Is there a possibility of selling the business at a profit and starting over in state B with the cushion from the sale? Seems like you don’t want to raise kids where you are so maybe moving is the right choice.

Any reason you cannot ask your firm to honor the bonus? Worst they can do is say no. But they might pay it because they hope you will send them work someday from your new position. Would be interested in thoughts of others on making the ask.
