    Hi-

    I'm new to this site and investing in general. I was wondering where you get the % of your returns from what you have contributed to the TSP. Is it located on the quarterly statments? If so, where?

    Welcome Mercury! take your total for January 1st, subtract it from your current balance divide the difference by your total in January. That will give you your % gain this year to date, BUT that includes your yearly contributions!. Subtract your contributions from your yearly total and subtract that from your January total and divide that by your total in January. I think? The best way is to start posting your allocations and be tracked by our tracker, then you get the real deal.
