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?
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.
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
Going to enlist this year , yes definitely want to do the same steps as you ..
This is purposefully misleading. 2.6k is the base pay for an E4- with BAS and BAH this number rises substantially.
How is it misleading if you get all those things ? You still get paid that.
Mane ima need ya to get me right with some financial advice

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?
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
@@TheWealthyWarrior_and it continues to grow till your 60 ? Any penalty withdrawing early ?
How often do PAs deploy and what do those deployments look like?
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.

When did you join the airforce?
2021
I had no clue pay was so low…. I’m a welder now living very comfortably but also want to join the AF
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.
