Q. I was recently hired at the the FDA. I have about $43,000 in student loans with a high interest rate. How much should I set up to be put into my TSP in order to take a loan from myself? Would this be a smart move? I believe that this way I’ll take out a loan from myself at a lower interest rate.
A. The most you can borrow from the TSP is the greater of $50,000 or 50 percent of your vested account balance, so you’d have to have an account balance of at least $86,000 to borrow $43,000.
