What Percentage of Your Assets are in One Specialty?

So I am an investor in the general sense of the word - meaning, real estate, stocks, etc. 

I am not that comfortable with the market, and was thinking of going to 40% of my assets in real estate - namely, good apartment syndications. Ones that are diversified by sponsor, and by market, and by complex (that is, not more than 6-8% in any one apt complex). 

Any thoughts on this? Is 40% of one's assets in real estate (apartments, specifically) too much allocation - to the point that it is overly risky? 

I am wondering if most of you will be like "Hell no, I have 100% of my investable assets in real estate - It's what I do!" or no.
