There are about 117,000 Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) millionaires today, and you can be the next one. Yes! It is not that complicated; you can be one in the future, or you may already be one - congratulations! The number one and perhaps your worst enemy is yourself and its true. There is tremendous amount of information that you see, hear, or read from different sources and social media platforms about TSP that are overwhelming and can give you information overload. Recessions, inflations, income taxes, and other investment barriers can be major negative stimuli.
TSP is a long-term financial investment, as such, you deserve historical financial facts and data, future value calculation, and the impact of taxes on your TSP contribution decision to get the most of your hard-earned money. C Fund is the king of all the individual funds. Why? C Fund is invested in Fortune 500 companies. Fortune 500 companies contributes 65%-67% of the USA's GDP. In this book you will see 104 years of financial market, and the Fortune 500 Companies performance, return on investment (ROI). I divided 104 years into decades to get the ROI average and to find out how many recessions are there in every decade. I also pulled 110 years of inflation indices and 60 years of individual tax rates to include the 2023 and 2024 tax brackets. I have also analyzed why the S and I Funds ROI are higher than the C Fund the year(s) after recessions, I call it artificial ROI. All these historical financial facts and data were analyzed as these are the key information when making a well-informed TSP investment decision.
This book will nurture your mind and develop the confidence to do the right TSP investment decision that is guaranteed to achieve your financial goal. You will no longer worry about the downswing (bear market) of the financial market, inflation, and income taxes - these are natural occurrences in a free-market economy. When face with doubt, simply refer to this book, and rest assured, you will go to sleep at night with absolute confidence because you have made the right investment decision and will be financially comfortable at retirement age or earlier.
