    If the court rules: Orange Man Good - nothing happens Orange Man Bad - Some import companies will get refunded Orange Man Whatever - Some mash in the middle So, nothing - or, at the very least nothing bad for the private sector. This should be a reason to be IN C/S/I and out G/F.

    Hello all!

    Back in the day I was all over this site yelling that I would be willing to give up Social Security and/or my FERS pension for a greater match in TSP. I wish the Gubmint had taken that offer. I mean, take nothing and give nothing is fair. I would have been better off. But, now I'm on the cusp...

    TSP Beneficiary Designation Issue

    The whole thing about camping in 'Pending' indicates that the person is not responding. I've never seen any of this. It's weird. Maybe the witness' computer security filter is blocking it - not just sending it to junk. There should be a way to go in there and see.

    TSP Beneficiary Designation Issue

    The process is 'clear as mud', but the pending timeframes and witness requirements are covered in the video after you select your way through the 'Add Beneficiary' menu options:

    Beneficiary updating

    Can I recommend: Don't talk to some numpty on the phone. They may sound helpful, but they were probably working at Taco Bell last week. Don't do things using snail mail. They will be functionally non-staffed for that. Keep things SIMPLE. Perhaps: Change the address on Beneficiary 2...

    TSP Beneficiary Designation Issue

    Did your witness change his/her email since it was entered so many moons ago? Maybe: Change the relationship. If it is a kid, change it to spouse and see if that works. If it does, change it back. Perhaps try a different person to see if the process works at all. You can/should always be...

    Hmmmm, tasty market... Not exactly a lion, but we all get the picture - don't we Too bad my TSP contributions still haven't been posted. Anyway, that is small potatoes. I would rather be younger and go 'all in' on C/S/I right now than worry about getting my contributions in. But, I ain't...

    C-fund

    The very best thing about that 2009 market bottom is... You now have a Peter Lynch style 11 bagger in 2025 - and, it is the freeking S&P500 index. Yowser:banana: Even the worst case - a buy and hold drone - would have cleared over a 6 bagger from the previous high 😍 Man, those C-Fund shares...

    Wish I had more in G/F. A speculation bubble my be bursting, but the economy is starting to roll. So, all is good. Then again, this downward move happened too late to take advantage of. We shall see what happens at 1500 EST.

    Nostradamus here: GDP will be robust and the private sector will be growing. Normal and Good Inflation will be stable. Wages will be growing faster than inflation and, the Monthly Treasury Statement will show a large and structural surplus. That MTS will be kinda a joke though. Federal...

    Federal Health Care Plans

    It is a Mail Handlers plan - but it IS open to all those eligible for FEHB. I had NALC - which was a great plan, but is no longer being offered outside of the Postal Service. After reviewing the various options I chose MHBP. I don't like % copays, but that seems to be the way of the future...

    Dumb Money Hour, and things are moving up. But, Dumb Money Hour. You want to see the S-Fund smiling with a greater slope than the C-Fund. That still isn't happening. The Dumb Money C-Fund is up 0.93%, the Dumb Money S-Fund is up 0.50%. If all was good to go those would have been reversed...
