just remembered...few weeks ago, i managed to talk to a FM during a seminar.
she hinted this strategy...might worth think it out.
if the fund had made 10% (value is just an example, could be of any value you want)
...cash / transfer out the 10% (keep this 10% at a safer asset)
rational....if you did not take it out.... if the fund made another 10% this 10% of earlier gains will just made another 1% of the amount.
ex....1000 + 10% = 1000 + 100
another 10% = 1100 + 100 +
10if you take out that 10% gained earlier.....
and if the fund grow another 10%, you will just lose out the 1%
BUT,...you will have 10% of the BULLETS to shoot turkey in a corrections.....else all you invested amount + the 10% gained MAY be in "RED" during the correction.
what you think? i am still thinking about that too....
You're assuming that you will run out of funds in the short term. If you have a salary and enough savings you can keep the fund and shoot corrections and still keep the 1%
