TSP-like investment program

[TSPTSP]

Hi. This is my first post. I am 41 years old. I love the TSP, and I have been playing with the TSP for the past several years. I am already contributing the maximum to the TSP ($16500/yr). Now I’d like to invest additional $1000/mo in the TSP-like investment programs — for investment, not for retirement (Roth IRA not eligible).

Due to the education I received from this website, I am comfortable to play with the TSP individual funds (G-F-C-S-I) without spending too much time (only 2-3 hours/week). I like TSP because I can put some money to either F or G in a bear market without paying fees. Is there any investment program very similar to the TSP format? I would appreciate your opinion.

-Individual funds-
G Fund - Government Securities fund.
F Fund - Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index
C fund - S&P 500
S Fund - BlackRock's Extended Market Index Fund
I Fund - BlackRock's EAFE Index Fund

First off, welcome to the forum, it's good to have you here with us.

To answer your question, I'm not aware of another program similar to TSP. There are several ETFs that track the major indexes, and I myself have used my USAA brokerage account to trade some (low overhead) mutual funds.

Check out our sister site http://www.etftalk.com/forum/ there is lots of good info in there on the ETFs.

Best of luck, let us know which route you take.
