Take advantage of the many benefits and privileges you’ve earned as a retiree: Space A flights; lodging on bases all over the world; access to base resources, like golf courses, boat rentals, and organized tours; use of Armed Forces Recreation Centers; and upon retirement, one final military-sponsored move that allows you to store your household goods for a year free of charge while you decide where you want to settle.
Military Bridge: Over the past several years, we have moved around the country for many different military assignments. Each location that we lived in provided its own unique challenges in adjusting to the new environment. The one element that remained constant with each move was the insatiable need to find local businesses that we could rely on and trust; businesses that had the same qualities that we were accustomed to in the military: integrity, selfless service, and loyalty.
Military Dollar: Our goal is to make personal finance simple. We’ll explore military-specific topics such as the Thrift Savings Plan, GI Bill, and military pay. We’ll also work through some of the basic financial skills everyone needs to know, like budgeting and paying down debt.
Mil Mom Adventures: Navigating and documenting the adventure that is military life. Information on how to save money (who doesn’t), how to fit in working out with child-rearing, how to fit in mom time, what to check out at your new location after a PCS, and so much more…
