How to use the TSP Retirement Calculator
To project your TSP Balance at retirement, enter the following information:
TSP Account Balance
Current TSP account balance
Expected Rate of Return
Average annual rate of return you anticipate from now until retirement
Number of Years Until Retirement
Number of years until retirement
Annual Contribution + TSP Match
Total annual contribution from payroll deduction and government match. The maximum match is 5% of annual income.
What is a Reasonable Rate of Return?
The stock market is unpredictable so it becomes a challenge when choosing a return for a TSP investment projection. Use caution when looking at the 10-year average returns found on www.tsp.gov. The average historical return over the life of the TSP C fund is around ~10% whereas the last 10 years have shown over 12%.
What is the Best TSP Investment Strategy?
There is no correct answer to this question. The term “best” is relative to your specific financial situation, risk tolerance, and expectations for long-term average returns. Is your goal specific to maximizing TSP returns or creating a TSP investment strategy that is well-balanced with the goal of mitigating risk?
Best TSP Funds to Invest in 2024
Below we have listed the most common core funds and their historical averages since inception and the 1, 3, 5, and 10-year returns. What are the best TSP funds for 2024? The answer depends on a number of factors such as your financial situation, risk tolerance, time horizon, goals, and objectives.
TSP Investing Strategies
It is important to determine your Thrift Savings Plan investment strategy. Are you able to clearly define your investment strategy objective? Most people are unable to define what investment strategy they are using. The TSP Retirement Calculator can only project based on expected return, not TSP investment advice.
Are the L Funds the Best TSP Investment Mix?
The L funds may be the right choice for someone who either doesn’t have the time or skill to review TSP investment options on their own. The ideal way to use L Funds is to pick the year closest to your retirement then put your entire TSP balance in it. Ultimately, the TSP L funds will end up in the L Income fund over time, which we know is heavily invested in the G fund. This gradual progression to a G fund-heavy investment objective may not be the right fit for you. Over time, the L Income fund may struggle to keep up with inflation.
