[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Family money
Spouse has a high income

Also, many active military claim residence in FL and the like, and pay no property taxes[/quote]

This but officers can make good money.  They get a lot for a housing allowance on top of pay.  [/quote]

They also have far less expenses, too, in general. Besides housing, they typically will not spend as much on medical, state income tax, college savings (GI bill plus in-state in their state of residence), retirement, and a whole lot more.

This is, of course, even more true for dual-military families, especially dual-officer. [/quote]

Also no educational debt.[/quote]

Not everyone got a gi bill.  My spouse did not. He had a fist share for him only.  The pay was terrible.  I spend more on medical with tricare as doctors suck and no one wants to take tricare. [/quote]

Cost share. Retirement is under $1k.  After the annuity and medical and taxes it’s a few hundred. [/quote]
