I took most of the money that I will need from now until 70 and put it in my Fidelity account and into treasuries with about 20% of it in stocks. My other account that I'm not currently using and hopefully won't need until much later or if I pass away first, is more like 75% stocks and 25% treasuries.

Like some others here, I've never been big into bonds. If I want security I'd go with treasuries, CDs or MYGAs (although I'm not overly fond of them).

(I'm still waiting for my TD account to get moved.)
