    TSPTALK Tally Leaders Bear or Bull Indicator

    Re: Bearish I was! COB Friday I moved 40% back to G though: currently 60% G, 20% C, 20% I. I'm young. I can take plenty of risk, but I like to hold onto the gains I get, too.

    TSP Managers?

    imported post My take is there wouldn't be a fee, and this issomething the TSP is taking into consideration as opposed toimplementing a lifecycle fund. The comment on changing how the funds are invested as market conditions change kind of throws a twist in there though. I haven't seen anything...

    imported post Citizen wrote: That's not the intent of whatBilker does though. From what I know he only once tried to actually make money off of credit. The purpose of his website is to beat credit card companies at their own game doing whatever it is you need to do.

    MBNA prospectus...the Credit Card machine.

    imported post I've always heard you should be extremely conservative with credit cards if you want to have a good credit score. Things like only have a small number of accounts, keeping the balances on them low, or even using the credit card and then paying it off right away so you don't pay...

    Religious Thread?

    imported post Actually, what you said was you didn't think that this was the place for discussions on religion. That's fine. I completely agree with you. It's also not the place for other topics that are just as touchy in other social circles. If we are going to resort to character flames, I...

    Religious Thread?

    imported post I didn't single you out. Don't act like I did. There are a number of things that I'm refering to, if somewhat offhandedly. You brought up the idea of limiting a certain topic to a particular area of the board,and only because it runs against your line of thinking. Apparently...

    Religious Thread?

    imported post We all may be adults, but I came here to discuss finance. I didn't come here to read sexual innuendo's or anything else of a nature other then finance and investing. If we are going to limit content at all,anything that doesn't relate to the topic needs to go. Not just what you...

    imported post The Producer Price Index skyrocketed in the biggest jump seen in 15 years, which is where the fear of inflation came from. Thankfully, the Consumer Price Index recently releasedwasn't nearly as severe. If the CPI had gotten the same kind of hit the PPI received we would have...
