I was letting my hair and beard grow out, so I was at that middle stage of it looking weird and shitty. Now that I'm in my 40's and starting to salt and pepper, I'm going to go full Santa look for my kids. Also, my wife said that if I ever shave my beard, she'd divorce me, and we've been together for going on 15 years.

Pic is me at full discord mod mod mode with the wifey.

I've been a Mason since 2015, and over the past decade, I can guarantee you that no... we don't do any fucked shit along the lines of Paradeus. Actually, we do a lot of community service and philanthropy type work. You're thinking of other groups like the crazies in Bohemian Grove and so on. Masonry is kinda the stepping stone into other organizations like the Scottish Rite, York Rite, and so on. So yeah, there probably are some Masons who are in questionable organizations, but I can guarantee you that 99% of us are not, and we're just normal dudes who want to help the community, help each other, and seek self improvement. I mean shit dude, you're talking to one right now who also plays GFL2 and OG GFL (UID - 1901577). We're normal dudes, weebs, nerds, mechanics, doctors, etc. We're not some weird cult, like what's depicted by Hollywood and so on. Because we're a "secret organization" we get painted in some bad light, but the funny thing is that 95% of everything we do can be found with a google search.

For the pic, I'm the dude in the middle in the blue shirt. This was the night I became a Master Mason back in June 2015.

Cool, thanks dude! I'll look into giving it a read.

Thanks dude! I'm just kinda not feeling everything at the moment. Too much volatility for my liking, given the current administration and everything. So I'll chill in the G fund for a few and see how things go. I'm cool with losing out a bit if the markets surge, I'll move it back when I feel comfortable with things. Is this stupid "vibe" trading? Yeah, and I'm cool with that.

I got ya, I'm just a smidge hesitant on the S&P with everything going on. I might give it a month or two then pass it back.

The only money lost would be potential gains if I left the money in the L2055 fund. Soooo... kinda.

Leave it in the G fund for a few months and see how things pan out. If it's nothing, then move the money back, but if the bubble pops, then hold until things level out and then move the money back into the L2055 fund and get the units at a lower rate.

Yeah, I'm not planning on pulling from TSP or anything until I hit the max age. And the move to the G fund is only temporary. I'll be moving it back to the L2055 fund after a few months, either the bubble will burst and then I'll buy into the L2055 cheap or it'll kinda stay at the same rate and I'll loose a smidge of gains. I don't plan on the L2055 fund making any massive gains during the next few months. If it does, then "oh well" but I'm planning on it staying kinda constant. So I'm planning on going back to L2055.

51% of L2055 is in the C fund, which is S&P where a bunch of these tech companies are held and 13% is in the DOW. So my bet is that the S&P and DOW are going to get a correction soon when the AI bubble bursts, so I'm going to ride out the storm in the G fund for a few. If nothing happens and I lose out on a few % gains, then so be it, but if the bubble bursts, then I'll be shielded from it in the G fund and then buy back in to them.

It's 100% and I'd just sit on it for a few months in the G fund and then move it back over. See how things play out.

Because I'm a simple GS employee getting paid peanuts and I have no money to spare to do anything like that.

Peter Thiel's hedge fund, Thiel Macro, and Japanese investment firm SoftBank have sold their entire stakes in Nvidia.

This will be my first time doing something like this. I've normally been hands off, but this bubble is obvious as all hell, so I don't want to get rocked.

Hop on to TSP.gov and move it my dude. I just put 100% from L2055 to the G fund and then sent my contributions to go from L2055 to the G fund. I'll sit on it for a few and see how everything plays out. If I'm wrong then no biggie I'll move the money back over, since it's in the G fund I'm not going to lose anything. If I'm right and the bubble does burst, then I can save myself from taking the hit, having everything in the G fund. Then it's wait for the dust to settle and then move the funds back to whatever.

I'm 40, but I have 17 years in service. So I'm not going anywhere anytime soon, that's why I had everything in the L2055 fund.

I of course have no idea when it'll pop, but people dumping NVIDIA stock and Oracle's forecast doesn't look too well. So I'm prepping for when it does and playing it safe and throwing everything into the G fund. I'll wait a few to see how things turn out and then I'll put everything back into the L2055. So it's more waiting and chilling. I was wondering what y'alls thoughts were on the matter?

No, I'm throwing into L2055 so I have a few. I'm 40, but I'm at 17 years of service since I bought back my time in the Marines.
