Securing Your Future: Financial Wellness & Literacy

Financial stability is the bedrock upon which a successful transition is built. The military's financial ecosystem is unique, and understanding how to translate your military assets into a secure civilian financial plan is essential. Your earned benefits, from the GI Bill to your military retirement, are powerful financial tools, but they must be managed with a clear strategy.

Your Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) is one of the most powerful retirement accounts in the world, with exceptionally low fees. Understanding your options for the TSP after you separate—whether to leave it, roll it into another account, or begin withdrawals—is one of the most important financial decisions you will make. The official TSP website is the only source you should trust for information about your account.

To protect your financial well-being, the government has established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Office of Servicemember Affairs. This office is your advocate, providing unbiased financial education and a platform to file complaints against predatory financial practices. For those still on active duty or within a year of separation, Military OneSource provides free, confidential financial counseling services that can be an invaluable resource in building your first civilian budget.
