Thrift Savings Plan

[DESKJS]

Thanx!

Even tho the amount of money we make/lose is not posted until the morning, I recently discovered that they actually post the earnings for each fund in the evening. For example I was a bit surprised too, but noticed last evening that the I had gone from 19.96 to 20.02. From that I can work out the percentage of gain which came to about .31% if memory serves me right. If I had paid attention in Algebra I'm sure I could work it out faster than I do.

I pretty much knew last nite about how much I was going to show in profit today.

And you don't have to sign in on the TSP to get the earnings per share. It's on the main page before and anyone can access it. And if someone could tell me how to figure the percentage of gain/loss based on these figures, it would save me a bunch of time! I tried division but that didn't seem to come out right. I use trial/error method.

I am toying with the idea of 100% in the I-Fund and when we do get a pullback I'll look seriously at it. I have about 18 months or less left in TSP and I'm trying to get all I can. (I know they tell people where I am to be conservative). But the "risk" funds have served me well thru the years, so why change now.
