+1.... I personally would split nominals and TIPS 50/50 rather than 75/25, but two bond funds is likely the most I'd want to hold (not three). If you're really set on the notion of three bond funds, then this might work:Why not just 75% BND, 25% SCHP (intermediate term TIPS)?
Very simple, very defensible.
50% Vanguard Total Corporate Bond (VTC, 0.07%)
25% Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury (VGIT, 0.04%)
25% Vanguard Short-Term Inflation-Protected Securities (VTIP, 0.04%)
