Careful there jdphx.
I just encountered the same message re: a thirteen digit password asI was having trouble remembering my password for some reason and was getting this error message about 13 charaacters ect. BTW our password are exactly 8 chacters not 13 so where did that come from?
I made the mistake if clicking on "I forgot my password" where with any other site you would immediatly be sent a reminder of what it is.
That ain't the case with the TSP site, and I was locked out of my account for 8 days! It seems the new "COMPUTER GENERATED" EIGHT CHARACTER password the TSP sends you needs to go by carrier pigion e.g. the US mail. Now isn't that special, but oh so typical of the gubmit way.

Yes, the email has gotten generic, so that your account info is not sent unsecured text through all the ISPs across the nation, or world, for that matter.
-Or did you forget that general domestic email is transmitted as unsecured text?
Mail - email
1 secured by an oath, 1 not
Although not as convenient, the generic acknowledgment is more secure. :notrust:

seems to be more selling strength, but this may be a push to hold at the 50 day and get some short covering started. Tomorrow will tell the true tale.

Got all the way back in today....
Man, had to pay good coin to do it though.
Hate buying in on such a green day, but can't
sit around waiting for the "perfect" entry point.
There isn't one!
I'm sure Birch would say, if it didn't hurt a little,
it wasn't the right decision.
Now let's see if this market can chug steadily ahead.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
Jumped out for the end of November swoon we may see.
Looking to get right back aboard the Train the first little
December dip I see!!
Sure learned allot in my first "full-time" year of actually paying
attention to my TSP account. Thanks to many of you for that!!
My results don't show it (400+ club!) but I have done much better
the last few months than the first few!
Safe Holidays for everyone.... Looking forward to 2011

WOW!!!
No less than 42 people by my count to 100% I fund today...
Looks like the "Intrepid Train" is packed to the gills for 2011!!
Good luck to all, and for the non-followers, looks like you can
either gain a HUGE number of tracker spots, or get FLATTENED
by the avalanche as these folks go up or down!!
Watch your heads.... :laugh:

Interesting little diddy I just read..... You may have seen it before, but it was new to me!
Once upon a time in a village in India , a man announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for $5 each.
The villagers, seeing there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at $5, but, as the supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their efforts.
So the man announced that he would now buy at $20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.
Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to $25, and the supply of monkeys dropped so much that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch one!
The man now announced he would buy monkeys at $50! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now act as buyer, on his behalf.
In the man's absence, his assistant told the villagers "Look at all these monkeys in the big cages that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at $35 each and when he returns from the city, you can sell them back to him for $50.'We can all get rich."
The villagers squeezed together their savings and bought all the monkeys.
They never saw the man or his assistant again, only monkeys everywhere!
