Military Pay 2023 | How Much I Make In The Air Force E-4

[@treycuret]

This is purposefully misleading. 2.6k is the base pay for an E4- with BAS and BAH this number rises substantially.

[@jacoboliver2581]

How is it misleading if you get all those things ? You still get paid that.

[@fgh1207]

Going to enlist this year , yes definitely want to do the same steps as you ..

[@strumminandwrenchin9162]

I’m gonna be making POCKET CHANGE as an E-3 in the US Air Force RESERVE!!

[@McBrownyFTW]

Relax.

[@astrogator6454]

I just passed my ASVAB and PA qualification to get a job like you. Any advice for entering this job and any tips on where I should start to prepare myself for investing properly?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

If you get the job then everything you need to know will be taught at tech school. It’s kind of long, but you’ll learn a lot! I recommend getting in the habit of putting money into your investment accounts each check you receive. The earlier you start the better.

[@Jake-be9ji]

Great videos where do you get your information on what to invest in?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

Twitter, Yahoo Finance, and I listen to podcasts like TBOY

Mane ima need ya to get me right with some financial advice

[@dee_yaadie]

Suggestions on what we should look for when looking for where to start our investing?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

I would suggest getting a handful of conservative stocks/etfs, and then start branching out into industries you’re really interested in (for me it’s Tech) and that will allow you to easily stay up to date

1. What is a TSP? 2. Do you use the money from your investment portfolio or do you let the money you put in your investments build over time?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

1. The TSP is the Thrift Savings Plan, it’s the military’s retirement plan. 2. I reinvest my profits so the portfolio continues to grow

[@dneroaddiction]

@@TheWealthyWarrior_and it continues to grow till your 60 ? Any penalty withdrawing early ?

[@Jake-be9ji]

How often do PAs deploy and what do those deployments look like?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

It will ultimately depend on the unit you go to. During a deployment 90% of the time you’ll be capturing imagery like a normal wing shop would do.

[@JiinX_5.0]

When did you join the airforce?

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

2021

[@esechillin8411]

I had no clue pay was so low…. I’m a welder now living very comfortably but also want to join the AF

[@TheWealthyWarrior_]

Pay isn’t the best, but we do it the majority of our expenses paid for so I have the opportunity to invest and save the 90% of my income.
