[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Your statistics are not including the match.[/quote] How so?[/quote] Assuming a 100k income, the match would be $5000 at 5%. That is a 27% gain on the $18,000. Your numbers are clearly for a mutual fund[/quote] ^I'm not sure what those last two sentences have to do with anything. But to clarify...the match does [b]not[/b] count towards the $18k contribution limit. At a $100k salary, yes, the match would be $5,000 at 5%. At that salary, in addition to maxing the $18k in personal contributions, the total amount going into TSP for the year would be $23,000 ($18k from paycheck deductions + the $5k gov match) [/quote] When you said front loading contributions is best, you give up that huge free match. You'll NEVER make those kinds of profits on that 18k in a year. So no, spreading it out is best.[/quote]
