Balanced Funds Don’t Inspire Fear Or Greed. That’s Why They Are So Useful.

FYI: The balanced fund is the vintage bicycle of investing.

It may be old fashioned — the first balanced fund, Vanguard Wellington, began in 1929, while a precursor of the modern bike was patented in 1866 — but it endures because of its sturdy simplicity and its sheer usefulness.
