I understand why you'd say bonds in tax-advantaged accounts and equities outside, but I don't know why you would put cash in the former. Unless by cash you mean money market funds or similar. But even still, qualified equity dividends are yielding more these days than bond interest to the extent that the total tax is usually higher, so you might still prefer to reverse what you said.
- itake 2mo agoMy equities are highly concentrated in tech (which tends to either not pay dividends or prefers stock buy backs). The rest of my equities is VTI (~1% dividend) and VXUS (~2.3% dividends). When I say cash, I meant value stored in money market and $SGOV. I'm actually experimenting with using my 401k/ira to invest in private equity (VC) funds, so I am holding cash (money market and $SGOV) in those accounts to ensure I have the capital for capital calls.
