First time on the dance floor

I have already made the mistake of stepping on someones thread (sorry bout that) so this chat thing is new to me.
I have always been told the "buy and hold" is the only way to go [LAZY MANS INVESTING]. Kind of like golf for me, you could hit straight and short all day long and lay up to be safe, or try to reach the green in one monster drive.
I will swing for the fences and back this up with educated reasons for the IFTs, thanks to this site.

Welcome, and thanks for being here.

Take a look around, read everything, then dig more into the message boards, and you'll see the combined wisdom of TSP experience teaching you that ......you can always learn more.

That's the beauty of TSPTALK. You learn something new EVERY day.

Good luck, and happy investing!
