Thank you for responding.It's just over $19,000. I believe over another 5 years or so.Also since I wasn't thinking I already requested a $11,000 tsp loan end of last week. My thought process was to pay the remaining $8,000 of my student loan with this 20 month interest free credit card, but didn't realize I can't pay my student loans via credit card.Plus now many colleagues are saying don't do TSP loan. So kind of worried I made a bad decision all together. :/Thank you,A'ndreaSent from my iPhone

Reply-To: TSP_Strategy@yahoogroups.comThe general consensus is to not take a tsp loan, but that interest rate is very high. whats your balance and what is your payoff time line at that current interest rate? THe plus side is more money will go to principal and despite losing out on the growth you will be gaining the interest you pay yourself in addition to replenishing your TSP balance. I would consider it depending on the repayment timeframe and tightening the wallet as much as possible.On Mon, Oct 1, 2018 at 12:51 AM 'EMERY, ANDREA' andrea.emery@cbp.dhs.gov [TSP_Strategy] <TSP_Strategy@yahoogroups.com> wrote:
Seeking student loan advice. I know, I know this is not 100% TSP related, but I'm taking a TSP loan out to pay back Private student loans. And yes I should have done this a LONG, long time ago.
Any suggestions? Few of my colleagues are saying don't do a TSP loan. But with a 2.85% interest rate versus 9.75% interest rate (it has just continued to rise over the last 5 years).
I am also considering paying part of the student loans via a 0% credit card offer (20 months). But just realized that the 0% offer is only for purchases or balance transfers, not for cash advances (25% interest rate). I'm 99% sure the student loan company only allows payment via check or debit card, not credit card.
If anyone on here has some wisdom, or personal experience, I would be grateful to hear from you.
Thank you in advance. And Sarah, thank you again for your wisdom. My TSP has been doing well over the last few years I've been part of this group. J
