Q. I’m a 65-year-old retiree under CSRS, have about $175,000 in TSP and do not plan on withdrawing from TSP until age 70. As a conservative investor, I currently have money in the G, C and I Funds hoping to have some money in a safer fund and some in which I can see a better return. With the current market downturn and the future predictions, I’m unsure where I should be investing. I don’t want to put everything in the G Fund, but I don’t want to put too much of my money at too high a risk. Any suggestions as to which funds would be best for me and at what percentages?
A. You should either find someone qualified to help you manage your account toward your goals, or invest your balance in the L Fund that most closely corresponds to your life expectancy.
