NB,
Holy cow, where do I start with this one...
Some of the many questions you should be asking yourself to make this all important decision:
1. Am I an active trader or and I the buy and hold type?
2. What level of risk (loss) can I handle?
3. What level of risk do I need to take (how much of a withdrawal do I want)?
4. When and how often will I be making withdrawals from the funds?
5. Am I comfortable with market returns or will I try to hold equal amounts of all types of stocks (and either beat or lag the Wilshire 5000 returns)?
Hope this helps.

NB -
Are you currently deriving income from your TSP or are you just trying to make it grow for now?
Hi,
Just trying to make it grow, I can't take anything out yet for another 15 years.

Self promotion alert! ;)
I put "suggested" long term allocations on the http://www.tsptalk.com/longer_term.htmlpage. It is updated occasionally. Sounds like you can get aggressive with 15 years left.
