I have very limited investment knowledge. I have some personal investments and I watch my TSP closely. I have been primarily a buy the dips each month in my TSP. That plan has proved very good for me over the past few years.

I am married to a wonderful woman that is not only my toughest critic and biggest cheerleader, she's also my best friend. She is the reason behind any success I might achieved. We have three boys. Their ages are 26 25 and 21. We will be first time grandparents in approx. 8-10 weeks. We own a motorhome and travel occassionally as work permits. We plan to travel more extensively after retirement. I am a novice part time woodworker (and even though I'm not to good at it yet) I enjoy that hobby very much. I expect to learn a bunch from you TSPTalk folks and make some $$$ so I can spoil grandchildren, buy some more tools and travel!!

Thanks for reading!!

hey kave, welcome aboard.

i see you are woodworker. would you be interested in picking up some side work? i have a simple project i would like to get made. it is basically a block of wood with some holes drilled in it and maybe a indented/routed area for a tray freature.

do you have an account talk thread setup yet to discuss your trades? i could post my idea there and get some feedback?

thanks, burro.
