A survey conducted by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants says running out of money is a top concern among their clients when they are look ahead to retirement.

Do I need to rebalance my asset allocation? Depending on the performance of your investments, you may want to examine whether your mix of stocks, bonds, cash, and other assets is close to your target.
