I was just wondering. Would anyone be interested in telling whether you are FERS or CSRS? I'm just curious because it seems I don't have enough bones in my TSP and I'm guessing it's because most everyone contributes more or they must be pretty high up the GS-level to have 100's $ in the TSP.

Thanx for everyone's input so far. It seems to date most are in FERS. Those of us that are CSRS are almost lifers (30+ years Govt. service) The branch that employs me U.S.P.S. seems to be doing it's best to get us retired ASAP. Thank God I didn't transfer to FERS when offered.
