Why I Joined
Compare and track. I also use Personal Capital, but due to dual authorization and security of banking sites, its getting harder to use without hassle.
Best Financial Decision
Invest. Invest. Invest. I started investing small amounts at 18. But started really heavily investing at 26.
Worst Financial Decision
When I bought my house with a VA loan I paid extra to buy a lower interest rate, then refinanced anyway 1 year later.
Current Investing Strategy
Invest in TSP and Roth IRA. I also have a little bit in crypto. But as I am 33, I'm >90% Stocks, Aggressive Growth.

07/01/23 : 12% of Salary into Roth TSP with additional 5% match in traditional. Mainly C and S Funds so high stock. Also: add $250/mo. into Vanguard Roth IRA
