Sure, but that's not the purpose they serve. It's nice to have the extra flexibility, but it's an entirely different purpose vs adding a bond fund.You can sell them.My rationale: I don't consider my current pre-retirement salary as a fixed-income asset. Nor do I consider future Social Security payments as one either. I don't really see how a purchased TIPS which I plan to hold to maturity is particularly different from either of those.
From my perspective, I can also "sell" SS by claiming it earlier than planned, but it's still not part of my AA.
