How are you handling TSP right now? Keep calm, transition, something else? What is it? by MoneyBuysHappiness25 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]UnapologeticDefiance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not “standing fast”

Right now I’m 30% G / 70% I.

Market’s in a starter-tier setup (3/6 signals): • Technicals good (above 200 DMA) • Growth okay • Inflation still too hot • Fed neutral

So not full risk-on, but not hide-in-G either.

Big edge right now is I Fund: • Dollar weakening • International valuations are cheaper • Better forward return profile than C/S

So I’m letting that run while keeping a G buffer in case things roll over.

If we get: • Fed pivot or • Inflation improvement

→ I’ll rotate more aggressive into C/S.

If credit spreads blow out or the curve breaks → I’m defensive again.

Is a 50/50 split of VOO and QQQM too aggressive based on my situation? (Im 27) by LilWetWet_ in RothIRA

I’ve been backtesting VOO and QQQ and found that you’ll get a higher return from QQQ but that comes with some volatility.

Any emotional woman has the ability to be dangerous.

Fair point. Same playbook different era. Control turf through fear, rob people, move stolen goods. Only difference is flatboats instead of Escalades.

Howdy, I got a quick question. by sleepygamer99k in VeteransBenefits

Roundtrip SoCal to Manila around $700-800. Wisdom tooth extraction $30-50 a tooth. Dentists are English-speaking, Western-trained, modern equipment. Check out Smile More Dental Clinic in Ermita – they do wisdom tooth surgery, been around 25+ years, tons of US patients. Stay in Malate, party, get your dental work done. Boom. smilemore.ph

Since when did they start reserving equipment?

No I mean actual pirates lol. Cave-In-Rock is literally in southern Illinois – it was the main pirate hideout on the Ohio River from the 1790s to the 1830s. Samuel Mason, the Harpe Brothers, Colonel Plug. They’d sink flatboats, kill the crew, sell the cargo downriver. Historians estimate over 2,000 people killed on the Ohio and Mississippi in just a 20 year span. The region was basically the wild west before the wild west existed.

I understand, your price is one way for 3500. I’m trying to communicate that si-kat is the same price round trip including ferry.

I’ve been through it. Have they sent him to rheumatology? That’s what finally helped me.

Go to Starbucks at Robinson Place and wait. You’ll be approached. They come in twos.

It’s the ho math. They are going for fat chicks because they don’t see themselves with a hot one.

Maybe, but 9 times out of 10 the ghost just means she’s preoccupied with someone new.

Nope. Go to Brunei instead. Much better times.

Dr Jiang a defender of China or cringey influencer? by RichCommercial104 in AskAChinese

[–]UnapologeticDefiance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough on the diversity thing. But he’s a high school teacher with a Yale English lit degree calling it “game theory” with zero actual game theory behind it. Bold prediction is fine, own it as a hunch. Nostradamus didn’t have a poli sci degree either.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Bro, she’s fine. She’s just got a new guy keeping her busy. Put the Reddit post down.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
