Q. I recently retired (CSRS, law enforcement) and am trying to decide whether to leave my money in the Thrift Savings Plan or roll it over into a privately managed IRA portfolio including diverse programs that will meet my goals of growth, income, annuities and a certain amount of liquidity.
If my TSP portfolio is diversified to meet the above goals, if you compare apples to apples, is the TSP considered better or worse (value performance, management, fees) than rolling into a privately managed portfolio (with a broker I trust).
A. TSP is the best retirement investment vehicle there is. By the way, would you trust a salesman with your life savings?
