Sometimes military life brings situations that could result in piling on debt \u2014 extra expenses from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/mil-money\/2017\/03\/06\/your-move-your-money-7-tips-for-financial-pcs-success\/\" target=_blank>PCS move<\/a>, and the hit on the household budget when the spouse can\u2019t find work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are many benefits out there that can help service members in the financial arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know. Defense and service officials have been working to increase the financial education for service members throughout their careers, and the DoD Office of Financial Readiness recently launched a website dedicated to financial literacy, <a href=\"https:\/\/finred.usalearning.gov\/\">https:\/\/finred.usalearning.gov\/<\/a>. It breaks many important military personal finance topics into digestible pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s one place you can go when you have questions about personal finance, benefits, and consumer protections that apply to you, even if you don\u2019t think your question could have a military-related solution. For example, where to go when you have a financial emergency, getting help through a military relief society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The subject areas covered are benefits and entitlements; managing your money; saving and investing; planning for the future; understanding consumer protections; and housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among its features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Fact sheets on making the most out of education benefits, and additional leads for financial aid; detailed information on all the elements of the Blended Retirement System.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Fact sheets, tip sheets and lists delve into numerous topics such as building and improving your credit history, shopping for a credit card or a financial institution, or eating well on a budget. There are explainers on the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, the Military Lending Act, and dealing with debt collectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Links to 11 calculators to help you figure out how much car you can afford, how long it will take to pay off a credit card and different strategies for eliminating debt. To use these 11 calculators, you must have a common access card, but there are also other loan calculators available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Short videos on subjects such as continuation pay under the Blended Retirement System; deciphering the Leave and Earnings Statement; financial prep for the PCS and for life events<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Often we don\u2019t seek out a resource until we\u2019re in immediate need, so we may not remember the information given a year ago or three years ago. So remember this website \u2014whether you\u2019re new to the military, or have been around for a while. It\u2019s hard to remember all the benefits, and you don\u2019t want to leave money on the table because you didn\u2019t know about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And most importantly, the site constantly points you to the personal financial counselors on military installations who are accredited professionals offering one-on-one assistance on a variety of topics, as well as group briefings \u2014 at no charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also trained, accredited personal financial counselors available for one-on-one assistance and advice at Military OneSource, as well as a wealth of information on a variety of topics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New DoD website pulls together information you need to make the
