TSP to Gold IRA Rollover
A cautious framework for evaluating a Thrift Savings Plan rollover into an IRA that can hold qualifying precious metals.
A TSP decision is first a federal-retirement-plan decision, not a precious-metals purchase decision. Confirm distribution eligibility and compare the consequences of leaving assets in TSP versus moving them.
Separate two decisions
- Should money leave the TSP at all?
- If it does, should any portion ultimately be allocated to physical precious metals?
Do not allow the second question to force the first. Compare fees, investment options, withdrawal flexibility, creditor protections and tax consequences before changing account structure.
