[etguy]

here is my company's plan - seems their default plan :

VANG INST INDEX PLUS - 37 %
DODGE & COX INTL STOCK 13 %
VANT TOTAL INTL STK IP 12 %
BAIRD AGGR BOND INST 11 %
VANG INTM BND IDX IP 7 %

My problem ? I don't know these funds well . I was thinking to simplify into the following :

total stock 40 %
total international 15 %
extended market index 15 %
total bond 20 %

please give me in puts

If you have the Total Stock Market, you don't need Extended Market, because the latter covers mid and small cap stocks, and they are already covered in Total Stock Market. Extended Mkt is a completion fund, with the Institutional Index (S&P 500) equals Total Stock Market (in a 80%, 20% ratio).
