    Spaf's Account Talk

    Well, have made my last IFT for TSP.......All things must end! Too bad, but the TSP became unmanageable at the end. A day late and a dollar short. They just didn't look (think) that far ahead. Maybe, they were all involved about limiting trades rather then looking out for their members...

    Who will you miss most, and why?

    [member] I don't understand the need to carry around baggage filled with hate. It might be Jackson, Obama, Bush, whomever! I do understand disagreement, but to make it a relentless passion is not life, to carry it around is a waste of time, life is too short. We kind of need to get rid of...
