Our Members


The majority of our members who invest in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) and use our service are hard-working Federal government employees seeking guidance in maximizing their hard-earned retirement savings.

Our members are civilians and uniformed service employees (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and the Coast Guard). The largest majority of our members are part of the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS). Though, we do have many members who invest in the TSP who are part of the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS). Even Federal employees who left the government service can still be a part of the TSP.

In addition, we have a growing number of professional investors, stockbrokers, money managers, financial planners and investment advisors who have joined our service. We have contracts in place for advisors who manage client accounts - called "Assets Under Management (AUM)."

Overall, there are several reasons why members are subscribing to our services:

  • Most members are those who may have tried the buy-and-hold strategy or were part of the Lifecycle Funds, and were exhausted seeing their hard earned savings plummet during bear markets.
  • Some have tried other services that use chart interpretation and have lost money through their strategies.
  • Other investors are signing up since they want a low-risk and long-term profitable method of increasing their retirement savings.
  • We also get investors through word of mouth recommendations, which is always appreciated.

As of June, 2022, there are an estimated 4.3 million employees within the Federal Government based on a report by the Congressional Research Service titled "Federal Workforce Statistics Sources: OPM and OMB" (updated June 28, 2022).

There are three primary branches of the Federal Government:

  • Legislative Branch
    The Congress & Senate House

  • Judicial Branch
    The Supreme Court of the United States

  • Executive Branch
    The Executive Branch has many Departments such as the Department of Defense (military), Department of Education, Department of the Interior, etc.. The flow chart below shows the diversity of the Federal Government.
