My son is doing so well being in the Air Force. He knows how to save. He paid off his car only a Honda Civic when he returned from overseas and then still has lots of money saved. He is frugal and only buys what he needs but when he wants to do something nice he has the money for it. I'm so proud of my boy. 🥰

@birkenstockboy 2 месяца назад

LOL! Same with me, I went to Vegas with some friends and had about $500. When I left I decided to really buckle down on my finances. Sold my car so I didn’t have a car payment and paid off the rest of my car note AND all my consumer debt. (About 8k in total debt) Bought a cash car with the leftover money and started putting A LOT of money I earn into savings. Just enlisted in the Navy, I have a plan I’m going to follow so I don’t blow all my money and I’ll have some savings when I get out. I leave to boot camp on April 1st. I’m starting off as an E3 and Uncle Sam is going to pay off my student loans. About to turn 24 and decided it’s really time to buckle down and grow up.

You can still cut hair in the dorms for extra cash. At least I did for my side hustle. But you’re not paying any rent or utilities, so the $2000 goes a lot further.

I wish I had thought about this when I joined. I'd have a lot saved up now. We eventually used the snowball effect to pay off our bills. With that said, 200/month and 500/month is WAY too much to spend on clothes and "fun". I'd say $50-75 for clothes and $100-200 for fun. What do you want flashy brand names or $1 million dollars in the bank?

Budgeting is key. Make the budget, and anything outside of the budget you can’t afford. After that, you wanna make sure you don’t take on unnecessary debt. Like an expensive car, or even education. I say education because the Air Force pays for your education. This will help you avoid any debt. Then just get smart and read finance books like the ones recommended in this video.

@crycryboo8732 2 месяца назад

Hello sir , i need an advice from you and from anyone reading these, i passed my ASVAB and i want to go active duty but am concern about my car which am already paying for before trying to enlist in the airforce. I would like to sell the car off before moving to basic training, but if i see it Am on loss which means i owe more than the car worth. I talked with my recruiter but she didn't really give me a valid answer. So my questions is should i put the car in a storage and pay the monthly payment of $417 and the storage fee or is it possible to ship it to my base after i have started my main job in the airforce. And lastly even if i put the car in storage will my monthly earnings as an E1 cover up the car monthly payment and that of my few monthly bills . Or should i go for reserve.I look forward for an advice 😢😢

@Jodywithawhy 2 месяца назад

I would recommend keeping the car if you’re upside down on payments. Either store it at a garage, or keep it at a loved one’s home. Then after basic training get your shipped to you or have someone drive it to your tech school location. As far as your pay, you’ll have to cover the storage, unless you have an abnormal car payment of course.

Most people do spend too much according to what they make. That being said there is a pay problem. Wages have not kept up with inflation and the middle class is being destroyed. 50 years ago joining the military was useful only for the benefits. Many still ended up homeless; enough to where a homeless veteran became a trope. Everything has gotten worse since then. Im all for dealing with the situation at hand but it’s dishonest to say there isn’t a pay problem. Especially when the pay problem exists because theres an island somewhere. An island funded by lies about Vietnam, Iraq and Ukraine. All that in mind great production quality and you have a lot of good information. Im sure you know all of what I said anyway but you have to keep your channel approved.

@Jodywithawhy Месяц назад

Thank you. I honestly believe the military pays its people fairly. It could be a disconnect or blind spot, but I think realistically military members are paid well enough to not deal with real struggle. Could they be paid more? Definitely and so can any other company, but keep in mind the enlisted members mostly come in with no skill and education, yet they start out living a life above the median household income. I try to be fair when creating content, but I do appreciate your perspective as well.
