For all of my fellow newly-employed MT posters, what are your 401(k) allocations looking like?

Nice mix. Unfortunately, many of those options aren't available for me.
I'm probably just going to pursue income in my 401k and invest for growth in my Roth and personal accounts. Some mix of high-yielding bonds (fund I'm looking at held up quite well in '94, '99, '05-'06 and actually trended up if dividends were reinvested), high-yielding equities and a smaller percentage of lower-yielding blue chips.
Still haven't run all the numbers, but these are my preliminary thoughts. Also, I have no options for real estate or commodities.

Oh snap. I have a feeling I know who that was, but I thought he was trying to rummage through my contacts to find a picture of my girlfriend. Funny that road lead to you

I'm still saving up cash. I'll start my 401k in ~2 months though.

Interest rates are too low for me to buy into fixed income right now and I like the long term outlook for emerging economies. S&P 500 index for low fees.

I said that when the 10-year was at 3.20, then 2.80, then 2.50, then I watched it trickle down to 2.06 when the Fed announced ZIRP till 2013, then I watched it go down to 1.80 after the OpTwist2 announcement.
Now, frick it
At least I'm picking up a little yield on emerging bonds.

Greek debt blew one all over the bondholders this morning. Greek pensions haven't solved the liability side so they just got completely bent over on the asset side this morning.
Like really bent over going in dry type shite.

Halfway through earnings season. Brutal hours are luckily eclipsed by loads of fun.
Also have trade shows, company conferences and management meetings ramping up.
Seems some of the WS perks have finally arrived. However, we'll see how long travel remains 'fun.'

All of us just got shown up by a teacher on the poli board.
People are so delusional about how hard they work.
