[quote=Anonymous]The OP mentioned a stock:bond ratio. Bonds were safe during the recession compared to stocks, but they're no longer the best investment now since the market is going up, up, up. You don't have to put money in a bond fund. I'm more aggressive even though I'm 58. All my money is in tsp stock funds. I remember a professor telling us bonds and stocks are inverse. One goes up, and the other goes down. That's still true all these years later. The G fund can lose money. If the rate of inflation is higher than the rate of return in the G fund, then you're losing money. Let's say the G fund made a 3 percent gain in one year, but inflation was 5% for the same year, you lost 2% in that year.[/quote]
