You’re 35? Not bonds. Even if you want it at “retirement” you have 12 years
And you don’t even/shouldn’t need it at that point. You’ll be kicking yourself if it’s in bonds

What are your thoughts on the benefits of bonds if for no other reason than for

If you get any at all make sure they are short term bonds

That sounds like timing the market, and that's a risky / impossible game.

Its a decent short-term holding instrument, but there are so many better options.
