  5. Re: TSP strategy for mid 40's with 20 years till retirement. Anyone? Bueller?

    Yes, buy and hold works, DCA, stay in to win no matter how close you are to retirement. Market sinks, you throw more money at it. My humble opinion.

    Ugh! The I-Fund is bringing me down. I have to remember my reward will come later, while I continue to keep Dollar Cost Averaging at great prices.
