Just cruising by..

Hard to believe I have been retired 7 years already. Having my best year relative to returns.

I invest 40% in stocks and so far a return of 14.7% YTD. My auto tracker is...

I'm still very dissatisfied with the monthly payment schedules. TSP notice indicates I have to wait until the 20th of the this month for payment. Their new payment dates of the 15th is a joke when...

Nope, nothing here. Last month it didn't hit my account until the 19th? Why is their a delay? It showed up like clockwork before this garbage of a system was rolled out. Good grief.

I went through the same thing. Having to involve a witness really added torque to the matter. I think what it all means is somebody screwed up. And, my original beneficiary was completed hard copy...

Completed a partial withdrawal online. System says I have until tomorrow to complete application. Yet neither my wife or me have received the emails they were suppose to send requiring our action....

I thought it was just me. This website is completely unacceptable. I want to see the Project Charter, Requirements, Spec Docs, acceptance testing on and on. Way to many hidden menus with no clear...

That's what I thought too. Until I realized you needed to download the same form (If FERS w/Spouse) we used in the past, and have it notarized. ($20).

It is an improvement. However, you still have to go through the hassle of obtaining a notary (spouse signature required) when making changes to monthly disbursement payments. Even if you're reducing...

So where is the old perma bull? I was just reminded of him when reviewing some PM's back in 08.

Enjoy sir.

I don't know about JTH, but I'm glad I gave up drinking in the morning. :D

This market is very perplexing. Just checked my TSP account and it's ~ the same as it was when I looked at it a few...

And yet futures are up over 1%. Up in the face of oil going down and a future run on Greek banks..

I'm in the G-Fund watching from the cheap seats

Good call- The Euro is getting slammed

I had an IFT in the cue for 100% F at COB today and canceled it with 2 minutes to spare. Not feeling so groovy about that now. Monday may just flat out be the kind of day where they have to stop...

Starting to feel like I'm hitting the home stretch of my career. Unless things change dramatically at work, I will indeed pull the ejection handle June 2016 at MRA of 56. In government terms, 22...

Thanks JTH for the chart- I find this market in what appears to be a straight jacket. But how the market is turning a blind eye to all the geo-political events in the world, when just 6 months ago,...

Indeed- I had to revisit the intended and unintended consequences of Ops Ex

This old SeaBee tips his hat!

Thanks again JTH- Glad I found your thread as I check it daily for your comments. Me thinks the Friday job numbers will actually have impact on the market one way or the other. The weather will only...

Thank you kindly for Charts 101. Taking the time to tutor us is remarkable.

Thanks again

That's my story too, and I'm sticking to it. :mad:

I agree JTH. IMO, we have more downside in the cards after a brief rebound. It's going to take some time for the market to get over the QE withdrawals and with every little bit of bad news comes the...

Well since I moved to the F-Fund today you folks will make some serious hay in C&S the rest of the week. It's just the way it goes... :-(

I was in the F and made it up to +0.58% then went 25/25 in...

I see Amazon is warning of loses. Wonder how this will hit the NASDAQ tomorrow?

Well I decided to hold my 25C/25S/50G position as we have been chopping along here. With the positive GDP report this morning, I am leaning toward increasing my positions in the C&S (1 IFT left for...
