    Actually, she's just being nice cause it's like your first post.

    I guess that you're new and a lady is a fair intoduction. Silverbird is totally a 'lady' and smart -- like super mega genius -- but she's cool so it's a good blend.

    Anyway - she should have stressed to join in -- post more often and make yourself known.

    Well 6001 - it's great to have ya on board.

    I 2%

    Silverbird,

    Over the past week we had people coming in from all over the world and I was able to get good contacts in New Zealand. The greatest high light for me is the suba diving and I'm convinced it's where I would want to get my official suba diver's certification. Of course the land stuff would be incredible too -- but after this past week the suba diving comes first.

    Well -- I'll let ya go so you can pack for the flight.

    Last time I didn't follow my own advice - try for close to 1% per month (sounds silly until you realize that's 12%/yr). Ended up with +3% last year. So I figured time to fold with gains.

    G = 91
    F = 7 (losing on this one so not the time to sell)
    I = 2 (see F)

    New Contributions remain
    C=50
    S=50
    Then I saw the Japan news. But I don't regret my move

    Bennie's announcement today seemed ludicrous. What is he going to do, parchute down from a helicopter scattering money over the horizon to "Benny and the Jets"? Like the song, it's getting old, Ben. And it's not in harmony with the deficit ceiling dirge in the background.

    What Ben should do is hire a big blimp and paint FEDERAL RESERVE QE3 (big red letters of course) on the side and then fly it to Jersey for a big outdoor Hullabaloo -- How about some live music? Tin Zeppelin will be playing No Quarters, Dimes, Nickles or Anything,

    But of course with Ben steering the damn thing he will lose control and then ram it into the ground a'la Hindenburg. Hopefully some Goldmunch Sacks and JP Moneybags guys will be there and be caught unawares.

    Oh the Humanity!
    I like TSPTalk and I think most people here are well-intentioned but if I followed their advice, I'd be hunkered down in my basement with a thousand cans of tuna fish.

    And here we go, follow the PF charts (sort of)
    G 80% As usual, conservative. I'm not going to bet the farm. Or the retirement.
    F 7% Don't trust this but can't argue with success.
    C 5%
    S 7%
    I 1% Don't want to dump it all at this price
    New contributions still 50% C/S

    Folding.
    G 91
    F 8
    C 0 (keeping gains)
    S 0 (keeping gains)
    I 1 (not going to sell at this price)

    New contributions F - and the percentage will change because I'm paying back a personal loan. Will adjust contributions when the transation goes through.
