My worry is this. I have twice invested just before a crash. This was in the days when I was working. It might be sais we so much debt around and the length between the last crash, may be we are due a new crash soon?0

As Audaxer says even if there is a crash the dividends usually continue to pay out. I have a mix of cash as I am coming up to retirement and diversified global funds which are split between income and accumulation. So long as I have enough accessible liquid assets to ride out a crash that is all I worry about. 5% return may be a little optimistic though. I work on a 4% yield. I will not consider property at this time. Too much hassle.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.
