Saying Hello

**gsamx** · 02-01-2006, 02:54 AM

Hello, everybody. I started moving my TSP around after June of last year when we were given the ability to move it when we wanted via the web. I immediately learned that I needed solid advice about the various funds and timing the moves to maximize my gains. As a result, my returns last year were 3% from January to June, and 6% from June to December. I credit Tom and the folks on the board here with giving me the knowledge to at least feel like it's not all dumb luck when I catch a gain....well, maybe it is dumb luck, but don't tell me! Anyway, about me, I'm a computer guy for the BOP, married, one son, about 13 years from retirement. I enjoy restoring old muscle cars, collecting car and diner memorabilia, traveling, and cartoons. My best to all of you, and I'll try to post my moves when I can.

Boy, I wish I did. My Dad had a '56 Crown Vic that I wish he'd kept. I have a '68 Buick Gran Sport (under construction), a '77 Trans Am W72, and a '94 Impala SS right now. I had a '70 AMX and an '87 Buick Grand National I sold a couple of years ago. I've made a lot more $ fooling around with old cars than I ever have with investments!
