Re: JULY 1st
Only to the extent that I might recommend them to somebody who is an adamant "set it and forget it" kind of investor who doesn't want to do their own re-balancing. They're better than the G Fund, and a far sight better than not saving at all.

Re: JULY 1st
I plan to use 60 or 65. Think of it as a C.5 and S.5 (modified).

Re: JULY 1st
If you want 50/50 C/S, why not just do that instead? The L Funds devote too much to the G and F Fund at all times, and so there are losses due to opportunity cost. The L Funds also devote too much to the I Fund, which is a poor performer for most of the year.
Combined, the L Fund strategy of using G/F/I year-round greatly dampens the returns that C/S bring to the table.

Re: JULY 1st
No, not 50/50 C/S. Kind of a C.5 (modified C) and or S.5 (modified S).
Just a dirt cheap stock fund. The 60 will allocate 99% in equities.
I too don’t care for the I or F Fund. I just want the 60/65 for the price.

Ah, I see what you're saying. Sure, if it works for you and your investing goals, then I say go for it.

Re: JULY 1st
I’ve tracked the 10 year fund performances over the past three years. I would not touch these or the new five year plans. Me versus L2040 or L2030 - huge difference - advice: compare to a good tspcalc formula and sit back, relax, and reap the rewards.

After looking at the fund allocations for the L2065 Fund, I change my view. I will use the 65 Fund as a modified I Fund instead (now more appealing).Aitrus wrote:Ah, I see what you're saying. Sure, if it works for you and your investing goals, then I say go for it.
