I very seldom trade, but did two this month so far because of the market conditions. Anyway, on August 3, I did an IFT to mostly G and some F. August 5, I changed the F portion back to the C fund...

One of the reasons we are in the shape we are now, is people who buy into the media myth of a difference between Republicans and Democrats. Both are anti-Constitutional, both have no interest in...

I very, very seldom post, but that is outrageous, and a total lack of understanding of the basics.

Whatever you say, it may not be advice, but it is obviously a post without common sense.

This is August 4th, and you are full of bull. (not the bull market). Stocks are in free fall, and the F fund is going up. Learn your fundementals.

Futures rise? Great indicator. S and P is in free fall. Any other advice?

Just a quick question, I am retired and drawing equal monthly payments? Will this year have 13 payments on the 1099-R since January's payment was taken out of TSP December 28th? Thanks.

I am a FERS retiree and think it is quite obvious what he is saying. He is saying that it takes FERS, Social Security Supplement, and TSP to equate to a single CSRS annuity. The TSP funds that a...

The most dangerous people in America are those who buy into the myth that there is a difference between Democrats and Republicans.

That is an execellent verse to express the point. Also, something I got to say about one of the above posts. These slash and burn proposals came from a desperate Republican House leadership looking...

There is NO difference between the Democratic and Republican parties. Together, they control 100% of the power in this country. The differences between them are a facade created by the news media...

That vote was a big mistake. I figured it up for myself with 36 years of service and a high three of 59778, and with a year and three months of sick leave credit, it would amount to about 600 more a...

I know how you feel. Right now, I feel like a total idiot for saving 2300 hours of sick leave a few months away from retirement. They could have passed that bill without any cost. I know lots of...

Today the fed bought up lots of treasuries, lowering the yield. Does this in effect lower the G fund rate from its already historic lows?

I do not post very often here, but read a lot. I feel very trapped and do not know what to do with TSP. I passed by retirement date August 4th, but as of yet, have not left. My TSP is around 185K...

Thanks for your help.

Does anyone know why the G Fund has gone from .13 per day down to .10? Thanks

Slow me, but is this article talking about the tax deduction we as individuals enjoy with TSP by the income never showing up on our W-2, or is it the tax deduction the employer enjoys for his...

Maybe someone can answer this, as I do not understand the day to day returns of the G fund. If it takes 4-6 days for one penny, why did the daily rate just go up .1 yesterday? One would think it...

Let's forget about the LEO and ATC for a minute, and just use a federal worker. If a person retires the year in which he turns 55, he can take out equal monthly distributions of his choice changed...

That is not correct. If you take out equal monthly withdrawals and are still in TSP starting the year you turn 55, and retire, there is no 10% penalty, an amount of your choice. We have been over...

Thanks again, and hope retirement is going well. I can leave in August.

MetLife is a private company just as Bear Stearns, GE, Ennron, Washington Mutual, etc, etc, etc. As good Met may be today, so were all these companies. Met could go bankrupt, or lose most of its...

Thanks for your response. Ok, I got the point about the Navy time in the calculation. The other point one of the shared service calls made is that the criteria for eligibility is MRA and 30 years. ...

The postal service shared services is very confused about the supplement. I have called three times and gotten three different answers about eligibility, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
