I am using Betterment as a glorified savings account.

It is split right now. 60% bonds and 40% stocks. Earned 7.2% since Feb. Way better than it just sitting in the bank.

yea but you're kinda just justifying risk based on recent gains..
not the smartest thing in the world but you also never hear gamblers talking about losses, just winnings
