Re: [TSP_Strategy] Re: Bumpy Road to a Million Dollar TSP

 

Note- I neglected to incorporate annual contributions, so the ~16% estimate from the other thread likely represents the complete story more accurately.

The rule of 72 could be used to approximate anything that operates via a relative-basis increase similar to compounded interest.  So, while investment portfolios certainly don't earn interest like CDs, their change in worth can be estimated by an annual rate of return that would assume all changes (positive and negative) would be compounded, or in this sense, relative to the current worth and not absolute values.
That average rate of return is more like 18-19%/yr over the 5-year period, which is pretty impressive, considering that the variability in the annual rates could be considerable over that period.

The TSP daily balance depends upon share values, not a set interest rate.  I could be wrong, but I'm not sure the Rule of 72 would work here.  We get a Personal Investment Performance (PIP), which tells us our annual rate of return, not to be confused with an annual interest rate like you'd get with a CD.

The rule of 72s.  Take 72 and divide it by the number of years you want to double your money in.  72 / 5 = 14.8%.

There you go.  Not easy five years in a row, but doable.

June 2012 — $479,248.83 (25 yrs of service)
June 2017 — $1,136,577.98 (30 years of service)

I'm terrible at math, but what kind of rate of return would you have to have to double your money in only five years?  It seems amazing to me this person was able to go from $479,000 to over $1 million in such a short amount of time.
