The G fund is a very special free lunch type account. It pays you a bond rate of return, yet with zero risk of loss. Although its expected return is lower than other funds, it is much higher than other similar risk-free investments. As such, many Bogleheads with TSP access use the G fund as their primary bond investment.
Based on reading through Bogleheads over the last few months, I'm in the process of updating my AA. It would greatly simplify things to just follow EmergDoc's advice above and use my TSP G fund for all my bond investing. Are there any disadvantages to this?
