Can someone explain why bond funds have no future and are now a "risky" investment?


Totally depends on the kind of bond. Long-term bonds are paying relatively well compared with other kinds of bonds, but they are perceived as being quite risky since rates can only go so low.

VWINX (Wellesley) is 60% bonds/40% stocks and is up 1.6% so far this year.

Maybe I should be looking at balanced funds.
