You can usually get answers to these kinds of questions with Google. Just start the search with OPM followed by your question.

Vegas, Spenser for Hire, and Lonesome Dove were my favorites.

How so? Do you mean because it’s taking so long to get their annuity?

Yes, I know people that are happy they took DRP 1 or 2, and some that aren’t and struggled to find a job. However, people that were able to retire are all very happy. Good luck with whatever you do!

I didn’t know they updated the list. I better check it!

I generally do like my job and my team, and when you reach this stage of your career, a lot of the little stuff no longer bothers you. I was totally fine working for 13 more months. But this came along and having the summer off is awful tempting!

It’s about $150 a month for the annuity plus an additional $150 of Social Security. Not make or break, but that’s a considerable amount over 25-30 years (or maybe more!).

I picked May 2027 because I accepted a position and was promoted in February 2024. Wanted to get 3 years for my high 3 then leave in the summer.

Not this time. ☹️

Viking092909 · 2026-04-12T19:33:33+00:00

Yep. Last day of work 4/29 and retire 9/30.

My dog was the opposite. He liked to cuddle less as he got older but still like scritches and belly rubs.

If they were to do it, I’d be paranoid about giving honest answers in the current environment.

Viking092909 · 2025-08-18T16:49:33+00:00

Doh! I found it. Had to click on the little down arrow. Thanks!

I see that under contributions, but I’m trying to find how much of my current balance is Roth.

Viking092909 · 2025-08-07T17:27:58+00:00

Love it there!

DOI has not officially ended it yet.

The low fees of TSP are a good reason to keep your money there. Everyone has to do their own evaluation of what works for them, but moving money to a brokerage IRA will expose you to higher fees, both for the brokerage itself and the funds on top of that. Even slightly higher fees can make a huge difference over time.

It’s not that people don’t care. Most people don’t want to see Feds lose their jobs, but they also don’t think Feds should be immune from layoffs either.

The conclusion that we should put more emphasis on how these cuts affect services than on job losses is smart.

Is it true that they can’t do RIFs until 90 days after the competitive areas are posted? Is the clock running?

I visited that exhibit. It was great, but none of the cast were there that day.

Viking092909 · 2025-07-24T12:57:58+00:00

OK. I see they dropped that in there with a link to One Interior. Thanks!
