Mistake #2 – Not having a proper asset allocation for your portfolio

Asset allocation…

Is the combination of asset classes in a portfolio and their proportion to one another

Builds a balanced portfolio with appropriate diversification across asset classes

Helps reduce the effects of market volatility

Can help you take advantage of your return potential

Asset allocation does not eliminate fluctuating prices or uncertain returns.

* This is a hypothetical sample asset allocation only. It does not represent any specific investments.Your asset allocation will vary based onyour specific investment objectives and tolerance for risk.Small- and mid-cap stocks tend to react with more volatility than large-cap stocks. Special risks are inherent to international investments, including social, political, economic and currency risks. Likewise there are special risks associated with an investment in real estate, including credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the impact of varied economic conditions. Asset allocation cannot eliminate the risk of fluctuating prices and uncertain returns.

Strategies for fixed-income investing

There are many strategies to capitalize on values in the fixed-income markets.

Bond ladders are one simple strategy.

Bond yields and market value will fluctuate so that your investment, if sold prior to maturity, may be worth more or less than its original cost. Bond prices fluctuate inversely to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a general rise in interest rates can result in the decline of the value of your investment.

32

Bond ladders

A ladder is a portfolio of bonds with maturities spread across several years

Maturity Yield-to-Value Issuer Coupon Maturity Price Maturity Cost

$ 20,000 Bond A 3.40% Aug 2010 100.00 3.40% $ 20,00020,000 Bond B 3.60 Aug 2011 100.00 3.60 20,000 20,000 Bond C 3.65 Mar 2012 100.00 3.65 20,00020,000 Bond D 3.70 Mar 2013 100.00 3.70 20,00020,000 Bond E 3.75 Mar 2014 100.00 3.75 20,000

Bond yields and market value will fluctuate so that your investment, if sold prior to maturity, may be worth more or less than its original cost. Bond prices fluctuate inversely to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a general rise in interest rates can result in the decline of the value of your investment.

33

Ladder advantages

Simple, systematic approach that provides discipline to your investing.

As each bond matures, you get an opportunity to reinvest. If rates rise, you can reinvest some money at

higher rates.

If rates fall, some of your money remains locked in at higher rates.

Bond Yields and market value will fluctuate so that your investment, if sold prior to maturity, may be worth more or less than its original cost. Bond prices fluctuate inversely to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a general rise in interest rates can result in the decline of the value of your investment.

Seek the advice of tax and legal advisors

This presentation is designed to provide accurate and authoritative information regarding the subject matter covered. You should understand that Wells Fargo Advisors is not engaged in rendering legal, accounting or tax-preparation services. If tax or legal advice is required, you should seek the services of an appropriate, competent professional.

Wells Fargo Advisors’ view is that investment decisions should be based on investment merit, not solely on tax considerations. However, the effects of taxes are a critical factor in achieving a desired after-tax return on your investment. The information provided is based on internal and external sources that are considered reliable; however, the accuracy of the information is not guaranteed. You should direct specific questions on taxes as they relate to your situation to your tax advisor.

Please note: This material has been prepared for informational purposes only and is not a solicitation or an offer to buy any security or instrument or to participate in any trading strategy. The accuracy and completeness of this information is not guaranteed and is subject to change. Since each investor’s situation is unique you need to review your specific investment objectives, risk tolerance and liquidity needs with your financial professional(s) before a suitable investment strategy can be selected.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

S&P 500 Index: The S&P Index consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation. It is a market-value-weighted index, with each stock’s weight in the Index proportionate to its market value. The “500” is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance.

Government bonds are represented by the 20-year U.S. government bond.

Inflation is measured by the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers, not seasonally adjusted. Treasury bills and government bonds are guaranteed by the U.S. government and, if held to maturity, offer a fixed rate of return and fixed principal value. Yield and market value of bonds will fluctuate if sold prior to maturity.

Treasury bills are represented by 30-day U.S. Treasury bill.

The return of principal value of an investment in stocks fluctuates with changes in market conditions. The prices of small-cap stocks are generally more volatile than large-company stocks. Standard deviation indicates the volatility of an index. In general the higher the standard deviation, the greater the volatility.

Investing in fixed income securities involves certain risks such as market risk if sold prior to maturity and credit risk especially if investing in high yield bonds, which have lower ratings and are subject to greater volatility. All fixed income investments are subject to availability and change in price and may be worth less than original cost upon redemption or maturity. In addition to market risk, there are certain other risks associated with an investment in fixed income funds, such as default risk, the risk that the company issuing debt securities will be unable to repay principal and interest, and interest rate risk, the risk that the security may decrease in value if interest rates increase.
