I couldn't come up with a name for this one, so I just call it "Candidate 01". I'm looking for a retirement portfolio candidate. Maybe one of you can help me with a name.

!  you don't see a place for REITs in Candidate 02? If we get to Candidate 007, we'd better duck, because the .380 Auto bullets will be flying.

Oh crud, emerging markets. I can't stand them. I'm going to sub Intl Small Cap and see what happens.

Later... I like it better with Intl Small Cap. Pretty similar, smaller CAGR, higher Sharpe, less drawdown. Milder overall.

Candidate 01 has a better SWR than Candidate 02, even though Candidate 02 looks like it should have the better SWR... hmmm...

Candidate #1 reminded me of the Ultimate Buy & Hold Portfolio and TrevH's simplification posted on Bogleheads (https://www.bogleheads.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=38374)
