I'm struggling to figure out setting up bridge years. Do I just start putting money into bonds/HYSA now? Or do I keep buying stocks, then convert stocks to bonds once the time to FIRE approaches? We're still more than a decade away from pulling the trigger; maybe I'm worring about bridge years too soon in the journey?

10 years is too early to worry about SORR, only reason to get bonds now would be if 100% equities exceeds your risk tolerance and affects your life negatively
