Remo's Account talk

[Show-me]

Good luck to you!

 

[Remo]

Thanks Show,
Looks like I picked a good day to roll off my lily pad. My TSP fund total stays the same and I can buy more shares at a cheaper price. Does anyone know if there is a fee associated with an inter-fund transfer? or is the IFT covered in the administrative fee (50 cents per $1000 invested)?

 

[Remo]

Wow!! I just looked at Rokid's weekly Tally.....I'm a bottom dweller! Oh the pain!! the sweet sweet pain! At least I'm in good company

I might be low man after today.............

 

[Remo]

I'm letting her ride! Unless "TSPgoHighrisk" keeps coming out smelling like a rose. Then I might try his investing-FU. His FU seems powerful right now. HAI!

 

[Remo]

I've decided to stay with buy and hold. You have no idea how hard it is to sit by and watch everyone making their moves! But all I have to do is remember the pain I inflicted on myself trying to time the TSP a couple of weeks ago... I won't give in! The only moves I will make will be to rebalance my TSP fund. I haven't decided how often that will take place.

Let her ride!

[Remo]

Well, I just switched back from looking at my TSP balance..... I took a mental picture.... I figure it will be a while before I see a balance that high again! LOL Easy come, easy go. The good thing is this is a great time for DCA. Have a good weekend!

SPX of 1528 is here before the bunny rabbit pops up. 4/5/07.

 

[Remo]

Had to rebalance my fund. 5,5,45,25,20.
I love your enthusiasm Birch. I wish I had some liquidity to play outside of the TSP. Unfortunately, with a home in San Diego, 3 kids to put through college, and the IRS conspiring against me, that is just a dream. At least for another 10 years, when the last kid is supposed to be done with college. I thank a supreme being daily, that the wife works.

 

[Remo]

Well, I'm slowly clawing my way up the tracking list... moved up 5 spots! Wooohooooo!

 

[Remo]

Giving myself a V-D gift today... taking a little money off the table. 100% G.

I'll rebalance the account at any hint of a correction. :laugh:

 

[Remo]

Took some profit, now it's time to get back in while prices are still within reach!

I think the Surge in Iraq will be good for a surge in the USM. Declining oil prices can only bolster that position.

Rebalanced to

5%-G
5%-F
40%-C
20%-S
30%-I

 

[Remo]

So much for declining oil prices!! *&^&*#$ Al Queda!!

 

[Remo]

Having flashbacks from when I lost my lily pad jumping legs in January.
I want to bail so bad, but I'm going to stay.... discipline. Discipline has helped me claw my way up the TSP tracker from 143rd to 124th(I'm beating the F-fund by .01%:suspicious: ) Days like today make me happy that my allotment goes to the G-fund, If the market doesn't rally, I can DCA.

Looks like we might be needing the services of your avatar today! MEDIC!

 

[Remo]

Ok, so much for discipline....but even a wushu master will change his position before receiving a, "Tiger CLAW!", to the face. :toung:

I am now 50% C
50% S

 

[Remo]

C'es la vie. Que serra, serra.

Alwaaays look on the briiiiiight side of life...
I feel like that last scene in the "Life of Brian"

 

[Remo]

Earlier today on the bridge of the USS C&SFund

OOD: "We're listing heavily to port, sir!"

Captain: "Sound General quarter's! Where are my circle William reports?!"

OOD: "Are we out of the fight, Sir?"

Captain: "Out of the fight?! Ensign!, Confine yourself to quarters!
We have not yet begun to fight! Suppo!
W hen is our next allocation going to hit the fund?

Suppo: "Any day sir."

Captain: "Excellent Suppo! Take the Conn! Engines, all ahead full!
Ramming Speed!"

 

[Remo]

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! I'm goin' down! 142nd place....ouch.:suspicious:
