Hello, Henry. I'll be retiring soon and have been asking similar questions about how much to take out of TSP and where to invest it, and talking with different advisers about how to proceed.
Thanks to the 2018 tax code changes that sunset at the end of 2025, the next seven years could be a great opportunity for those who are retired to make several smaller yearly taxable TSP withdrawals into Roth IRAs while the federal tax rate is reduced.
Among the best findings from my research are the extremely low-fee, human-assisted robo-advisory services. There are several. Google that, or see https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/investing/best-robo-advisors/ for one comparison.
Of those, the Schwab Intelligent Advisory service seems like the best fit for me because of access to a certified financial planner (CFP) with 0.28% fees from computer managed porfolios.. Still higher than TSP fees, but extremely competitive with others. However, $25K is the minimum for Schwab's particular service. You can find out more at: https://www.schwab.com/public/schwab/investment_advice/intelligent_advisory
They all offer a variety of portfolios. Automated questionnaires and CFP assistance can help your wife chose the "right" portfolio to match her desired return/risk comfort level. Then she can revisit that portfolio choice once a year or so to see if it seems to be meeting your needs.
Last thought -- as one element to consider across your mix of income streams and investments, you can't match the return/risk-cost of the humble G Fund anywhere but in the TSP. Let your new external portfolio do what it can do best over time, and keep the best features of the TSP in the mix as long as they serve you well.
Hope this helps. Good luck to you and your wife!
Jim

Sent from my iPhone. My wife has 100k in her thrift savings. She retired 5 years ago. She wants to make a withdrawal of 20k and leave the rest in the tsp or put it somewhere else.
She has 50% c and 50% g now. Looking for the right mix to get better than the g fund. Not sure whether to have someone manage it and pay higher fees or keep it in the thrift .
Any suggestions would be appreciated
