Handballer's Account Talk

[nasa1974]

Thanks Nasa. My conformation has not arrived and TSP.gov does not show the IFT. I think I checked out before I confirmed the IFT. Can my IFT submitted here be recalled? I don't plan on submitting another one this week. For my age I'm losing too many brain cells.

That's a question for Tom.

I put in my IFT well before 12 noon EST on March 9th. I haven't received confirmation email from TSP.Gov yet. Is this normal for IFTs submitted on Fridays? I usually don't IFT on Fridays.

The IFT did not proceed. Error on my fault suspected. I had to leave local area ASAP and didn't have time to notify Tom. IFT submitted for cob 3/14 100%S. Gain on 3/15 and loss on 3/16 gives me gain of 2.42% for year. About #642 on tracker. thats the number I was a week ago.

Go S baby go!

For a while today I thought I was going to be a one percenter.

Have you noticed almost all members on tracker from #951 to bottom of pile are either 100% G or F or 50/50% F/G?

Hey, I resemble that! Actually, I was 50/50 G/F, but went all in today....50/25/25 C/S/I. And Bquat has been 50% in equities a while longer. My luck....those who are staying F/G will end up being the smart ones! :blink:

Lets say you are the smart one. It looks like there still is a lot of upside to this market. Thanks for seeing the light.

Thanks for the encouragement! So far the move has not been beneficial, but I am in it for the long(er) haul this time around. Give the market some time to go up!!

 

[Handballer]

What is it???

 

[nasa1974]

Pretty cool. But why is it sitting outside a Denny's?????????

 

[Handballer]

Nasa you have keen sight. I didn't notice it. Now I have to figure my TSP year to date %. This may take some time.

 

[Handballer]

Did you go t0 another site and spot it? I just did and it showed the thing and said "Saw this at the local Denny's today"

:toung::suspicious:

Here I sit in my home in Alaska listening to Hawaiian radio station KINE 105 on the dial. I sure miss that music and the place. Lei Day will be here (there) soon.

I'm off the TspTalk boards now and will try to finish this movie on DVD "Paul Newman in "The Hustler" with Jackie Gleason as "Minnesota Fats". For a few years before I joined the USAF, I use to visit the local pool halls in my home town. There were a good assortment of characters that hung around these places. A lot of them made a living hustling others. When the pool halls closed for the night, they played Poker. I played pretty good pool but not good enough to play for money.

I need a 2% gain in my TSP account next week but will settle for a little less. :blink:
