I’m very familiar. Max your deposits 50/50 in the C & S Funds. Make sure your balance is 100% in the two stock funds: 50% C & 50% S. Now, don’t look at it until you file for retirement.
There will be ups and downs, but your share numbers will only increase with each bi-weekly deposit. There share value will fluctuate here and there, but overall, you’ll be increasing shares and value. Stay out of the G & F until you retire, and even then some people keep a high percentage in the stock funds.
You only lose shares when you start taking withdrawals.
