Not a bad month for the market, but there has been a lot of turbulence. I am still up at least 15% from the start of the year.
I have also hit the $100,000 mark on my TSP account, almost $40,000 of which is tax-exempt. Not bad considering I started contributing in 2005. I have been putting in the maximum amount for the past 4 years, and even more while deployed.
I am cutting back my TSP contribution from $4000 next month, to $1300 so I can build up my cash reserves for a vacation in February. January I will bring my contribution back to $4000, and then set it at $2000 for the rest of the year. This should add at least $26,000 in 2011. |
