OT: Have to tell someone, wife got a TO!!
Sorry guys but I had to share with someone im bursting with excitement!!! After a long hard road about 3 years in the making for us both, figured you all mostly being fed, would appreciate it plus we are keeping it under wraps until the clearance and all goes through to tell family and friends so I'm just sitting on this! My wife was called by a selecting official in my office and told her after a short conversation he would forward her to hr and expect paperwork to be forthcoming! Head is spinning with $$ impact this will have on us, 1st it will be a 20K raise for her, wewe can carpool (USAA even allows us to "garage" the car we don't use to cut down on insurance), we can go to the gym together.. so excited!
I've already talked her into maxing out the TSP as well!

Definately not off topic brother. Congrats to you and the wife. I always dreamed of my wife getting a fed job, even working at the same place. I was going to mention about maximizing TSP but you guys nailed it. The Santa Rally is pouring all over you guys.Timber82 wrote:Sorry guys but I had to share with someone im bursting with excitement!!!

Do you mirror each other's TSP or do things differently with 1 and the other?jackhannah wrote:Congrats to both of you! My wife and I are both Feds. Have fun managing 2 TSPs.

We mirror each other. She could care less about TSP. I feel like I check this website every 5 minutes. Currently following daily seasonal 19045.
Re: OT: Have to tell someone, wife got a TO!!
Cool, yeah my wife gave me the login info for her 401 and IRA so I have been mirroring it with my TSP as close as possible. We will likely roll her 401 I to the IRA just due to more options then start the TSP from scratchjackhannah wrote: We mirror each other. She could care less about TSP.

Congrats Timber.
Re: OT: Have to tell someone, wife got a TO!!
Gratz man, that's awesome!
Re: OT: Have to tell someone, wife got a TO!!
Cool Congrats man! How ironic.... my wife just got a Fed job again as well! I was transferred in 2016 halfway across the US and she had to resign her GS 09/12 to follow. She wasn't able to find anything, but starts back with the fed on Jan 22nd of this month!
I've had her TSP (old account with a decent little chunk in it) mirroring my monthly and now daily for the last 19 ish months!
Pretty exciting stuff man! Also my wife knows what I'm doing but could care less to learn the daily! Haha... it's frustrating but I'll trick her into caring soon enough!

Those who 'abjure' violence can do so only because others are committing violence on their behalf.
