Hello to all from GA. I am a 23 year FED. I have been investing in the TSP since its inception, but really didn't understand how important the TSP would be to my retirement. I guess when I was a young man I wasn't too worried about retirement. I have made every mistake possible, from not investing 5% to get the full matching contributions, to selling at the near lows of the BEAR market, and even though I hate to admit it I even borrowed money a few times. So now I need to really get busy and build my account. I am excited about TSPTALK!

Welcome ATCHUNT! If you have money churning in the market at 23, you'll be just fine. Not many your age are even thinking about it. Good luck!

Begs the question, is he a 23 yr old fed, or has he been federally employed for 23 yrs?

Based on his post, I'm guessing he's a fed with 23 yrs in.

Being 23 and having 23 years of federal service under your belt would be very impressive, if incredibly unlikely.

Does beg the question, though, of who exactly has set the record for youngest federal employee. Or the longest length of federal employment.

Have to be the guy that lied about his age to get into the military.

Are you Jeff Hunt ZTL?

... I am a 23 year FED.

Yep- I'd say that means 23 years of being a FED, not a 23-year OLD fed.
