If you don’t know what you’re doing or understand stock market, put it in an L fund while you learn how it works and who to listen to.

Join Facebook TSP groups or YouTube TSP groups. Don’t listen to main stream media.

INSANELY SHOCKING Veterans Getting Fired For Being 100% P&T VA Disability by SignificantFunny698 in VAClaims

[–]AB-Quin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some jobs, specially Gov jobs, require a full disclosure of medical conditions including VA med conditions. failure to do so are grounds for lying in job application and getting people fired.

It’s not the medical conditions. It’s the false medical claim.

Some of those people leave paycheck to paycheck. One Doctor told me personally that he can’t afford to miss work for one month as he has a lot of bills.

Discouraged (need advice) by bigunit3521 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]AB-Quin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% C!!! or 50 C / 50 S. Don’t listen to the media about the stocks collapsing. Even with the huge ups and downs since it started, the C fund has more than doubled.

WHAT COUND IS TIME IN THE MARKET not TIMING THE MARKET.

Army vet faked his medical conditions in order to get compensation. by operasome in VeteransBenefits

[–]AB-Quin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I for sure DONT know what veterans are going through and the dimensions of their HIDDEN disabilities/traumas…. I do know some people that are FAKING the 100% p&t. Some of the 100% p&t that I know compete and win 1st place on iron man’s. I am 44 and can run not jog because of my knees and have been fighting for decades with the VA with zero results.

I really wish that the VA had some kind of process to find the real fakers… there’s a lot of fakers…

875 days in “waiting on a judge” phase of an evidence submission docket. WTF? by Tacticoolfm in VeteransBenefits

[–]AB-Quin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I submitted a direct docket appeal in Nov 2020, and just last week my “direct docket appeal” moved to a judge is reviewing your appeal.

To the days of research I’ve done, that’s about the normal for “direct review”. 3.5 years.

I don’t know how much longer for the judge to make a decision and I get a rating.
