Spaf's Account Talk

Just a miscellaneous note, I decided to make a slight change in my TSP allocation. On Individual funds my new allocation will be 30, 10, 30, 10, 20. made today at 10:00 AM. This is small change [added 10% to C].

You know that TSP will take my monthly deduction from my TSP account; they take a % from each fund. I wish they would change that and just use the G-fund.

I am sure you have complained. But if enough people write in maybe we can get it changed over time.

On a smaller note I wrote in on the account numbers being long, and hard to remember as I am sure most did. It seems as if it worked, we can create my own username now.

Spaf,

If your monthly payment is $100, then $30 comes from the G Fund, $10 from the F Fund and so on? ----Jim

Nice to hear from you Spaf!​

 

[FogSailing]

Been a while Spaf. Hope you are doing well. I'm just enjoying my summer days on the lake..I can't get too excited about a bear market...but I 'm hoping we'll see better days in 2009...

stopped by ozzies for catfish dinner , thought about you Spaf . have you been at the diner in a while? my daughter wanted to see more planes taking off but not much action that day

 

[Spaf]

Thanks kc!
That was a good memory.
I enjoyed a warm breakfast, and watching the planes come and go over hot coffee.

Well, have made my last IFT for TSP.......All things must end!

Too bad, but the TSP became unmanageable at the end. A day late and a dollar short. They just didn't look (think) that far ahead. Maybe, they were all involved about limiting trades rather then looking out for their members.

Upgrades were just untimely (mis)managed by TSP, and time ran out!

To salvage what was in the program a new source was needed.

My last IFT for TSP has been to a traditional IRA.........

So, this ends Account Talk for my former TSP account.

 

[Birchtree]

OK, I think I'm feeling better already. I misread your initial comments as something else more dire. Please make me wrong. Tell me you are still fishing on the Lily Pad boat. Tell me you are fine and this is just a financial shift.

So out of TSP you go, do you think the IRA will work out better?

As TSP now stands, it's for members only. The member's spouse (survivor) has to roll it over!.

Spaf was our lead moderator and an original Harvey always cleaning up a mess somewhere - and I seemed to make most of them. He is end stage and may have used today to say his final goodbye. I know others will stop by for a visit to offer their sentiments and I hope he reads them. He should have been given another 25 years to enjoy the Lilly Pad boat he bought. He was truly a brother and will be missed. Peace be still. For me he was a silent hero and always warranted my total respect even if he did spank my hands on occasion. He is one man that will forever be in my memory until my end of days.

I can't add anything more to this, but ditto.

Hey, don't count my buddy Spaf out just yet. He's really a tough nnuut to crack and has been up to his neck in the QuickSand before. He's my BOSS here and was the one that recommended me for Modeator!! Great Guy, he hates this kind of attention, but everyone knows he's number one and I guess they can't help it? You're tops George!

 

[tsptalk]

To our friend Spaf (George). The most respected member of this board by far. He is a fighter, but whatever happens, we will miss him more than he will ever know.

Peace, my friend.

Spaf,
Today is a sad day. My heart and my blessings to you. Thank you for your guidance and your wit. God be with you and yours always!....
