I want to comment on a Private Message I received regarding Greg's return and the number of transfers he made in November. Apparently not everyone is aware of the rule that you can transfer money into the G fund at any time (any percentage), even after transfer #2.
Here were greg's transactions in November:
2008-11-05 100 G (#1)
2008-11-20 100 C (#2)
2008-11-21 50 G 50 C (allowed, C to G)
2008-11-24 75 G 25 C (allowed, more C to G)
2008-11-25 85 G 15 C (allowed, more C to G)
2008-11-28 100 G (allowed, more C to G)
The rule for our autotracker contest is that you must follow the official TSP rules. You get 2 transfers, but then you can move money into the G fund at any time, as long as no other fund is being increased.
So, greg did a great job and despite making 6 transfers, stayed within the TSP rules and probably made those same transfers in his TSP account.
The TSP has taken a lot away from us, so take advantage of what they are allowing us to do.
Thanks,
Tom
