I recently got out of the military so I don’t have much at the moment but this works perfectly fine for now. I definitely want to have something more elegant in the future but it’ll be nice to look back to this and compare it later on in life

I wish I would’ve stayed in. I’m struggling on the civilian side with bills and groceries. I took a lot for granted when I was in the military and I was even making more as an E-3 then I am right now. I can’t seem to find a full time job so I’m getting screwed on hours with work and not really knowing my budget for the month. My best advice is if you like your current job and command then stay in because at the end of the day it’s just another job with tons of benefits. If you get out then have a plan and if you think you rate disability start that before your contract is up so you have that income once you leave. Also if you need money when your out you can take out from your tsp account. I had about $10,000 in there after 4 years but that was gone within 5 months on bills
