    Welcome,
    Tune in when you can and let your money earn you a very comfortable future. The rumor is invest 20% into TSP and retire at 55 .
    I was with DOD at 25 and never heard of the TSP. The MTMC canned me for throwing out a top-secret tape. Oh Well, GOD had other plans for me and I went back to college to bigger, better things. DOD was really wild during the Reagen years.
    As far as the funds go, I feel best to, keep at least 50% in the G until this recession passes, after that follow the Tsptalk leader board and roll-the-dice, my 2 cents.
    D,

    D,
    Ya, the DoD watchs that TS stuff pretty close. Right now i am at 10% in to TSP. i will be putting on E5 in a few months. Just got married and moved her out here to VA, so once she starts working i will bump up to 15% or so.

    i played it safe with my IFT today and went from being in the L2040 to 47% G 53% F. Waiting for C to find a new bottom.
