Reply to comment by ToothPicker2 in Pre-tax assets messing up my asset allocation percentages.. pls help! by ToothPicker2

You run 60/40 in taxable and 60/40 in IRA/401k. Problem solved

That would require a lot of buying and selling, for example - I’m 100% stocks in 401k.. which is why I’m wondering is it important?

It costs nothing and is tax blind in a 401k. Literally can change allocations in about 3 minutes.

It's not important because the differences are minimal in the grand scheme of things.

It’s tax blind in the 401k and IRA but would trigger taxable events in the brokerage right?

Besides, it would go against the ideology of putting maxing out bonds in tax advantage accounts right?
