    For those that don't want to watch the whole video. He paid some online investing guru money, learned to sell online, networked, and landed a lucrative job for a company that focuses around the skillset he gained through online selling. He also saved money along the way. So nothing unique to those enlisted in the military, just worked hard and was given a great opportunity that earned a significant amount of income.

    I was dead broke (in debt), minimal education, no upward mobility that I could see. Did 14 years in the Army. Got out of debt, learned leadership and technical skills, got a free education up to a Masters Degree, medically retired. 100%VA. Just got out a year ago, got a 6 figure job, started a Ph.D. program, got a nice amount in the bank, and a damn near guaranteed +$40,000 a year to the grave on top of my ability to work and earn.
    A lot of sacrifice and even moral jeopardy, but tbh, it's paying off now.

      @@proddyg6348 sure... I won't speak very specifically, but I will say that I was an infantry medic at the beginning of my career. I actively fought against insurgents in Iraq, who, in my view, were just poor people fighting for their homeland against both a foreign occupation (that I was a part of). A particular insurgent group also fought against terrorist organizations who didn't like them because of the type of Muslim they were... in that case, we were fighting the insurgents and their enemy, Al-Qaeda in Iraq.
      I've participated in and witnessed multiple acts that do not comport with my moral and philosophical principles. I did and am currently benefitting from participating in an imperialist war machine. I understood at the time that we were an imperialist war machine. But I did it anyway to escape my own poverty.

    I did 6 years in the Navy. The key is to make sure that you save money. There is a tendency to spend up your money all of the time. Also for those thinking about joining set some goals. I had three goals going in ... 1. Fix my money problems and get out of debt. 2. Get some badly needed technical training 3. Travel ... I wanted to see more than my hometown.
    I got a good job offer from IBM and others and got out after my enlistment. I did save a good amount of money around 1 years salary which came in handy when I relocated and started a new career.

    I got out in may of 2021. Biggest thing I’ll say now is what I said when I was in. USE THE TA!!!! Taking at least 1 class is so insanely easy online. Also, be smart and take a job that will translate to the outside world. Trigger man and cannon cocker is fun, but it breaks your body down, and unless you go work for the contractors that build your MOS specific equipment, you’ll have waisted how ever many years you put in with no skills to show for it besides being a general veteran. If you think being a vet makes you special, then get in line with the hundreds of people that get out of the military everyday who did this exact same thing. If you can’t get a smart guy MOS then let the army pay for school at least!

    Military service is still a solid way to change your life.
    Went from having $100 in my pocket (after my crazy mother booted me out of the house a week after graduation) to struggling for two years working meaningless jobs and going to community college to serving 21 years in the Army.
    Now I have a pension and a second career (utilizing the undergraduate degree I earned while serving and four months away from finishing my Masters using the GI Bill) while making a mid six figure salary.
    Yeah, there was a lot of suck and sacrifice (deployed to actual combat zones for 57 months of that time, multiple other deployments, and it put a strain on my family life) but in the end it was definitely worth it.

      Last I heard she divorced her seventh husband and stole a crap load of money from some of our mutual friends in Colorado, but that's where the story ends. I've had the same phone number since 2005 so it's not like she can't get in contact with me.

He was the one that talked me into saving some if nothing else. His whole goal was to save, then started investing safely just to get some growth and once he hit 200k was to buy a house and rent it out. His plan was 100k to the house and keep the rest invested. Spoke to him a few years ago and the guy was up to 7 rentals. Just payed off the first and kept leveraging the homes and dumping what he could into the paying the new one off fast.

      The world lives in the framework of "elementry school, middle school, high school, college, job, family, house, retire"
      To challenge this, to live outside of this, is what people call scam.
      The more vocal you become, the more successful you become, the more opinionated people will be of your views.

      @@MrYoonKim Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm there with you. There are multiple ways of achieving financial success. I truly believe that entrepreneurship is one of the riskiest but most rewarding ways to get there. But I don't believe everything outside of the norm or framework you put it is seen as a scam. We don't call a pop star, or Warren Buffet a scam artist, do we? Most people have a fairly good idea of what a scam is and what isn't.
      I wish you the best and hope you achieve your financial success and freedom ethically. While I understand everyone has different moral standards, people who are eager to reach their financial success early tend to cut corners or do unethical things at the cost of other people's kindness or mistakes. It's sad, but I've seen way too many scammers who take advantage of financially illiterate people. Another way of saying. Please don't be Logan Paul... Cheers.

      If you’re going as infantry and a marine.. be prepared to put ALL of these plans you have to the side and possibly forget about them, never returning to a point of wanting to do so… not trying to be the pessimist but I’m being the realist that these guys aren’t telling you … you can work hard as you want and stay dedicated but when you join the marines NONE of it will matter nor will you have the time especially as infantry.. and you will be program to be a marine on and off duty… if you really want to eventually branch off into something like a clothing brand during or post service your best bet is finding a MOS closest to an admin, medical, or any job that can transfer over to the civilian world and had a steady way of life during service… If you can go Air Force go Air Force, but man if you go infantry all that you’re planning is 100% DONE.

    Biggest advice: *Do not let your clearance lapse,* fewer and fewer people can even get one as they years go on. Have a plan for getting out *before you get in* or well before you're nearing your time; You can only serve your 20 if Uncle Sam wills it. You CAN work multiple jobs as long as when Uncle Sam rings, you never screen his call. Lots of "jobs" you can do; work from home/part time, freelance, or independent. Best to be in something that's completely and totally night and day from your MOS, to be safe. You can do something similar when you're out, but I wouldn't while you're still in unless it's with a vetted contractor or another agency (which is generally unheard of). If you're

I plan on getting out once I finish this contract I am currently on but I checked my TSP on my pay and it says 3% of my base pay is going to my traditional TSP. Which I am assuming is the G Fund. I am about to be 22 years old, NO kids, NOT married, and it appears to me that the best options for me would be to switch to the ROTH, C, or S Fund.
    I just wanted to know which TSP do you think would be best for me and my current situation? I also wanted to make sure that whichever one I end up choosing, I need to at least put 5% of my paychecks towards it if I’m correct?

    Since Biden took office, there seem to have been more unfavorable results in America. These results include effects on the markets, such as price declines and sharp increases in inflation, as well as bank failures. I wonder if the sudden increase in interest rates will help value investors or if it would be wiser to stay away from the stock and financial markets for the time being.

      To "buy the dip" It will be profitable in the long run. However, investors should be wary of the bull run. It is advisable to connect with a skilled adviser to fulfill your growth objectives and prevent mistakes. High interest rates typically result in lower stock prices.

      I genuinely appreciate having a portfolio coach who assists me in making daily market decisions. They possess a unique set of skills that allows them to take advantage of both long and short positions, offering the potential for substantial gains while also providing protection against market downturns. Furthermore, they have access to exclusive information and research, virtually ensuring superior performance. I've been working with a portfolio coach for over two years, and during that period, my earnings have exceeded $300,000. It has been an outstanding experience!

    Would love some advice from someone. 25 yo, JUST got my greencard, going to join the military so that I can expedite my citizenship process and because i have that itch. Havent done anything with my life really but managed to complete a bachelors in comp sci online at WGU. Wouldve loved to work on the IT side of the army but cant because greencard = no security clearance. Im considering 68c, 68p, and 68w because they translate well to civ world but the first 2 are 6 year comitmments and it would basically be a change of careers into medicine. Would yall recommend I go reserves so i can keep trying to grind for a software job, or go active and do the 6 years deployed or 3 years for whiskey? Man IDK your input is appreciated

    congrats on him saving 2000 a month. You literally get free housing, free food and free healthcare. Just save the money. but most will buy a hellcat. he had a great time hitting telsa.

    • @DezMcD
      @DezMcD ปีที่แล้ว

      Agree and disagree. Most definitely, congrats to him. Amazing story! However, this is a common misconception. No, we don't buy hellcats. I've seen approximately a handful of those during my time in. Just like any other job in the government or civilian sector, all of our benefits come out of our paycheck. Nothing is free. We pay it all, including taxes, just like any other American citizen, as it is displayed on our W-2. Having been in the Marines for 7+ years, I can see how he saved that amount. However, I can also understand how some individuals are not able to. It depends on one's circumstances. Like many others before my mother's passing, I could send money back home primarily as a single individual and still keep a good chunk of my yearly salary. Some people I've met have siblings they are supporting and whatnot. Some may say that's not their job, but what would you do?
      Now, as my lifestyle is entirely different now, being that I have children, it is costly. Daycare is out of this world expensive. With the shift in our current economy, just like many others, I am feeling it but still able to maintain and provide for my household, thankfully. Also, depending on your job and unit, unfortunately, you may have to pay for many of your supplies for work. There were a few times when I'd gone on a field opp and had to buy batteries, 550 cord, map pens, and basic things your unit supply should provide. It adds up and is costly, and that was at an infantry unit during pre-deployment workup. And there, you practically live in the field. I am now at a training command where they don't even provide the enlisted instructors with a water bull or MRE. So, guess what? Any time you are in the field training students or company training, you are buying all of those essentials to sustain yourself for the duration of that op. All this stuff becomes expensive, and you don't have an option. I think it's dope to see how people benefit from the military. But it's not the same for all. Some people genuinely have a great career in the military regardless of the amount of time they spend. While many others don't(my husband) Also, many, like my husband, who grew up in foster care, were never taught financial literacy. Thankfully, I learned before having children by honestly watching informative videos like this one. And I was able to teach my husband: trial and error. But understand not everyone's situation is the same. Yes some people are simply just ignorant with their money and will go get a hell at lol. But I've experienced both sides of being able to save like crazy and sometimes being unable to. (Note: I am respectfully saying this; again, I just wanted to clarify the common misconception I always hear from people. I even correct those that are in uniform.)

      @@ErickaWilliamsCC Yes, from a first-person point of view, we get plenty of opportunities IF we are exposed to them and if we are around leadership who genuinely cares to help us by telling you. Or seek it yourself by networking and researching (what I did). Trust me, I've learned more from people that I never worked with than from those in my unit. People/leadership will intentionally withhold opportunities or information from someone just because they feel like it. As I mentioned before, everyone's experience is different and is never the same, regardless of the amount of time served, what job, or combat tours. I've seen people thrive and fail after one contract, and I've witnessed higher-ups retire from the service and file for bankruptcy; some even did it while they were in. Circumstances are never the same across the board. But as you stated, which I do agree with; one's mindset is critical to changing our circumstances. Your mindset is where the change starts, followed by the actions of actually doing.
