looking forward to getting advice and making money

right now i am sitting with 47% G, 53% F. Hoping to jump in to C sometime soon for the ride up

Since i am sort of a newbie to alot of this i am using a newsletter that is put out by peacefulgains.com. its "balanced" allocation has an average +13.66% since 1995. I will be using a mixture of advice from fellow TSPtalk peeps, the newsletter, and my gut.

i just ordered The Little Book of Common Sense Investing so i am looking forward to reading that and getting a better understanding of things.

Glad to see some people making money is C and S. If S&P stays pretty level or drops down (hopefully before noon) then i will jump and use my 2nd IFT. heres to a good day.

Used my 2nd IFT to go 25% G 55% C 20% S. hopefully can make a few bucks in the next two days and be back in G by friday COB. Hoping for 800-810.

hopefully I fund will hold its ground on the positive side

today was awesome. i needed a good positive day, as many others did too. thanks for all the input you guys do in this forum, i would be lost without it.

currently 25% G, 55% C, 20% I, but i am going to be jumping out tomorrow, back to 100% G.

well here i am at work, not sure how much i will be able to be on, or if i will be home before the noon deadline, so i put in my IFT for a 50/50 G/F split. taking the little rally from yesterday and hoping for a decent performance today.

Hopefully i will be able to get on a little bit and keep an eye on things, makes changes if i need to.

:beer: cheers to a hopefully good day.
