Forgive me if you've said this before, but what is your current portfolio allocation? Are you GB or PP? Or something else entirely?
Thanks! I just do my best to support good conversations, and I'm thankful that it's pretty easy here.

These days I use a slightly modified GB with 10% ST bonds and 10% REITs. Nothing crazy different, but my personal thought process tends to slowly evolve every time I get new data.
Just catching up to this one....are the two 10%'s above what you are using for the "classic" 20% cash (for Golden Butterfly)? The remaining 80% being equally divided between - Total Stock Market, Small Cap Value, Long Term Treasuries, Gold?

Yep. I don't like to make a big deal about how I personally invest, as everyone is different and I also reserve the right to change my mind over time. But that's where I'm at right now.
