You need a certain number of posts before being allowed to edit. I think you’re close.DannyCarey said:Thanks, but it's not there for me2 -
I've noticed the edit cog often disappears into white space but if you hover the mouse over where it should be, you'll see the mouse pointer change and it is there.0

When I was working I had a simple index tracker portfolio and I left it pretty much alone, but I would rebalance when my asset allocation deviated by +/- 5% from my plan. This got me through several crashed without having a mental breakdown and I came out of them well. I've been retired for a few years now and get income from a DB pension and a rental property and I haven't touched my investments at all. Through the latest downturn I just left everything alone and it looks like it will recover ok.“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”1
