    Default TSP pay advice websites

    If you currently subscribe to a TSP advice pay site other than RevShark's, please send me a PM and let me know which site. I need people who subscribe to these sites to be able to verify the advice and timing of advice given.

    I'm interested in tracking and verifing the results of these TSP advice sites. I think it would be good to have an annual assessment of these different sites. I think this would be a valuable bit of information to know.

    If you have a TSP advice site and wish to make sure your site is included, please give me a PM.

    Thanks.

    TSPMAX for interfunds about 30days of use todate.
    TSPMoney Fast Track program for allocations, still in the 30 day free trial.
    I will post more when I have enough data to show some results.

    FS, you working with Systemtrader or what? I thought his returns would be posted here but his moves not tracked? I don't think it's wise to advertise for other pay site enrollees to post those moves and/or returns here. You're asking them to get in trouble.

    BTW, what happened to the TSP tips thingy? Hasn't been updated in ages......

    I'm not asking people to post the moves that they make but rather to verify that the moves they are making are consistant with what they are reporting themselves to have done. In a couple cases, I'm having people send me their moves and I'm going to calculate their return from that for comparison purposes.

    As to Systemtrader, I am still tracking him as well and if he were still posting he would still be leading the pack. I don't have the number in front of me or I'd post it.

    As to the TSP tips thingy, I don't think it exist anymore.

    I plan on posting my research fairly soon. I've been waiting on a couple people to get back to me. I've tried to get a couple verifications per site.

    SystemTrader said he didn't have time anymore.

    When did he say that? He mentioned to me a week back that he was working on another post.

    At first I thought M_M was talking about another website.

    You're right, he actually said he was going to do another series on annuities soon, but then wasn't sure how much he would be able to do after that.

    Yep, Tom, and I still owe you that...sorry! I will do another series on annuities but that's about all I can do. I'm not sure if anyone else can take the task on after that, but Wheels and others here give some good advice in the threads.

    As for FundSurfer, no I'm not working with him in this effort. I still send him my recommendations for third-party tracking in case he ever posts my results here again. But that's as far as my involvement with him goes. As I've said before, I think it's good to have third-party accountability. And so far, Rev. Shark and I are the only services who have allowed anyone else to track and post our performance.

    Since there is concern, over displaying results why not look at the performance page at TSPMax website?
    I follow the dynamic.

    I found out about TSPtalk after subscription to TSPMax.

    The concern is for not posting their moves since people are pay for that advice.

    My purpose is going to be different. My purpose is merely going to be two fold:

    1) Verify that the posted results on performance pages is accurate.

    2) Post a comparison of how the sites are doing.

    There are several sites that are new and don't have much of a track record, but I will post what I have when finished compiling.
