omg, and don't even get me started about 60% equity 40% bonds. that portfolio is 80% equity 20% bonds because in risk space (not even taking into acct correlations) equity risk dominates the portfolio

no one outside of the quant world talks about investments in risk space, and you're not going to get any converts, because weight space is a much more intuitive way to talk about portfolios, even if it does give misleading statements.
