// SUMMARY:

The Gone Fishin' Portfolio is a diversified mix of 10 assets. It gets its name from the idea that you can go fishing with all the time you save by using a lazy portfolio and not having to monitor, manage, or change it.

Rather than guessing which assets will outperform during which years, Green advocates for diversifying broadly across them to reduce portfolio risk and drawdowns, similar to the idea behind the famous All Weather Portfolio. I can get behind that.

The allocations are as follows:

15% U.S. Stocks
15% U.S. Small Cap Stocks
10% European Stocks
10% Pacific Stocks
10% Emerging Markets Stocks
10% Short-Term Investment-Grade Bonds
10% High-Yield Corporate Bonds
10% TIPS (Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities)
5% REITs
5% Precious Metals

Using mostly low-cost Vanguard funds, we can construct the original Gone Fishin' Portfolio like this:

VTI – 15%
VB – 15%
VPL – 10%
VGK – 10%
VWO – 10%
BSV – 10%
USHY – 10%
SCHP – 10%
VNQ – 5%
GLTR – 5%
