    I am going to hold in the I Fund for now, hard for a buy and hold guy to move when your down this far, will think about the G if Momma starts dusting off my pizza delivery uniform.

    Welcome aboard! Here's the upside, you are just at the right point to start riding this thing up. Whenever that is lol.

    Time passes quickly, as when I started out in the TSP ~22 years ago, today seemed a long ways away. Give to your TSP until it hurts, then give 2% more.

    Good Luck,

    I just went 100% into the I Fund fully expecting it is the only thing we have considering there is no hard asset fund to resist inflation. I would love to have access to a hard asset fund. Any chance of that ever happening?

    I am not up on what a hard asset fund is.. sorry

    Moved 100% S for the week being that the i fund has been lagging, (probably a good time to own it now that i am out) watching the sentiment survey, seems since the trades may be limited it may better suit my buy and hold ideas.
