Age 66 and retiring soon

Q

In your article, “Report: Muni Investors Had a Lousy Spring,” I really like your attitude and your strategy. What advice do you have for a guy whose money is tied up in a large 401(k)? I’m 66 and retiring soon.

R.O., Florida

Our approach is the same for all fixed-income investments by individuals.

Think quality first and then maximize income for the tax-deferred compounding interest your 401(k) provides.
