Retirement becomes a hot topic for Gen X-ers as they enter their sixth decade. Here's how to make the money last.

The article by Lawrence Light on Forbes, titled "Asset Allocation: A Vital Strategy For Your 50s," discusses the importance of asset allocation as one approaches their 50s, a critical time for financial planning due to the nearing of retirement.

The piece outlines how asset allocation involves distributing investments across various asset classes like stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents to optimize returns while minimizing risk. It highlights the need to reassess one's risk tolerance, investment horizon, and financial goals, suggesting a gradual move towards more conservative investments to protect accumulated wealth. The article also touches on the benefits of diversification, the potential use of target-date funds, and the importance of consulting with a financial advisor to tailor an asset allocation strategy that aligns with one's retirement objectives and personal circumstances.
