You know I'm close to retirement, and when I do I will still be here trying to make more money. The only difference is I won't be allowed to make contributions, this is even more reason for me to keep making MORE MONEY than the L2010 let's say. Retirement isn't DEATH , it's just money for nothing and your drinks can be free if you have good friends, ask Spaf!!For all you who are about to retire, why are you taking on so much risk in these market conditions? These markets are not for the faint of heart. Unless, you have 5 or more years left, be careful!!! Unless, you do not mind to risk $$.Just my 2 cents.

Of course,I was saying that for those not faint of heart. I tend to be a risky taker until I die. It is in my blood. Smart risk!!!I guess it's all relative. I can see an 18 month cushion. But 5 years? You can easily make 6 figures in that time with contributions and moderate risk.
I'm not Ebb, but his move makes sense. Here's my reasoning. Look at the stats for patterns 5, 7, & 8.
Pattern 5 w/ 3 stop signs points to the G Fund. However, if you were to play contrarion every time and went to the I fund instead you would be up 2.47% overall.
Pattern 7 contrarion would've saved you from a 3.21% loss, and Pattern 8 would have gotten you a 0.62% gain.
Pattern 8 is on the fence. Given that Ebb is in I fund at the moment, than it's not surprising he stayed in for what might be a bounce after the I fund losses on Thur. and Friday.
Ask ChemEng to give you a link to his spreadsheet. Or ask Jayhawer for a link to his stuff. I think you might be able to find it on home page?gphill,
Can you pls tell me how you check the I fund (to know if it's up or down). I thought that because it is a compilation of European and Asian markets and the I fund being a Government concept as such, it was not that easy to check its % of gains/losses.![]()
Ebb,
Have you updated the ebbtracker for tomorrow? I only see it for today at the G fund. Thanks.
