解释:
Emma Young, a 47-year-old single mother of two daughters, ages 7 and 10, recently sold a business for $5.5 million net of taxes and put the proceeds into a money market account. Her other assets include a tax-deferred retirement account worth $3.0 million, a $500,000 after-tax account designated for her daughters’ education, a $400,000 after-tax account for unexpected needs, and her home, which she owns outright.
Her living expenses are fully covered by her job. Young wants to retire in 15 years and to fund her retirement from existing assets. An orphan at eight who experienced childhood financial hardships, she places a high priority on retirement security and wants to avoid losing money in any of her three accounts.

我的回答:
The reallocated money market account should implement the recommendation.
Equities have lower tax rate than bonds, so it should be put into taxable account.
Young has little liquidity needs, so holding stocks longer in taxable account is better while education and unexpected needs accounts need more liquidity.
