Q. I’m retiring in one year. I’m 66 years old with $617,000 in the 2020 L fund. I plan on taking level payments from the TSP. Should I leave the the funds in the 2020, move them to the L income fund, or move them to the 2030 fund based on my life expectancy?
A. The correct answer to your question will depend upon the size of those level payments and whether or not the payments may need to continue after your death. There is no one-size-fits-all-for-a-66-year-old solution for this. The answer is different for different circumstances.
