I'm in the military and everyone tells me to put money into TSP so I have for the past 5 months... But lately I've thinking how maybe I won't live long enough to even see that money since my father passed away with cancer suddenly at 59.
I also dislike the smaller paychecks of putting $200 a month in there.
Is TSP really essential or is a scam? Even if I have doubts about my lifespan?
