Havent been posting much but i have been keeping an eye on things. been a little busy getting my Roth IRA setup. as of COB tomorrow i will be 52% G and 48% F.
Welcome to the MB and TSP.
You have alot of information and smart people available to you on here so read around, see what others are doing then feel out your own path. Check out and get...
i am pretty sure they would just shift 10% from G to I for the COB price (atleast it makes sense that way) but i am in no way an expert. Welcome to the MB.
so here are a few things i am considering, feel free to comment/give suggestions.
I am active duty, 25, putting 10% of my base pay ($202.50 right now) in to the TSP fund (current balance is just...
might want to check, but if i remember correctly if you take it out, and then reinvest in a IRA (traditional for sure, not sure about roth) then you wont have to pay the penalty.
i would...
I couldnt help but hear the Prez say "AIG failing was an unacceptable risk". I would Beg to differ.
While this would cause a massive hardship, the system would correct itself over time. Maybe...
buying shares as the market prices go down is cost averaging.
it would seem that sell portions on the way up (once above your cost average price) could be a way of value averaging and getting...
Do it, to it.
the <1% moves is a great way to "use" the system to realize some small gains, or do a little cost averaging without taking yourself out of the game.
nsjsaacks, i aslo was looking at this fund. I have been wanting to open a roth IRA but most funds/companies require a $2,000 or $3,000 deposit to start.
with this fund you can start a roth IRA...
i am halfway through "little book of common sense investing" and i am enjoying it, alot of good info, i also suggest it to others.
i was wondering if anyone here has a IRA with USAA or has any info on them. they seem to have some good funds, and their index funds have a pretty low expense ratio. any information would be helpful.
thanks bear for that info, i might have to take advantage of that at some point.
as of COB i will be 100% G, (from 50/50 G/F). hopefully bonds will finish strong so i can realize a little bit of...
i will be starting my own investment plan for you guys to follow. Please mail cash to my cayman island estate.

i am waiting to see what the market does today before i regret not being in:rolleyes:
i have burned my 2 IFT's this month, so i cant even jump in to C when it comes back down. but that could be a good thing, i never could get my timing right:rolleyes:
well it has been awhile since we have had back-to-back days in the green, so its hard to say. with potential bad news coming on thursday, people might take todays gains and get out, others might try...
while this jump up could be another short rally, could it be a sign that things are starting to turn around? with the financial markets leading this, it could be a good sign..
thanks for the charts and comments.. good info in there:)
ahh.. yes.. i got the 2 confused. thanks :)
yes kodaq i did join the tracker. As of late i am always a day late or a day early. with the volatility of the market and all, i am going to sit out a bit and let the crazy get finished.

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...
when it comes to mark to market accounting i can only think of one word:
ENRON
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.
