    I used to think of my VA compensation as beer money, but I quit drinking. I’ll be paying off my home mid-November. It has been a game changer.

    Awesome topic! My story is I am 100% debt free for the last 15+ years! Just cruising! At the time I got debt free I was on 40% VA. Now I’m 100% P&T so I have a lot of money now to invest & just enjoy! Pinch along, back years ago.

      Same, unfortunately am debt free due to a failed business which led to bankruptcy. But now zero debt and 100% P&T, wife makes $500k+, so now I trade and invest and stay home with the kids. Also want to slowly add some real estate back to our investments.

    I've always lived below my means. I socked away for rainy days and for retirement. Nickels and dimes put aside. My first brand new vehicle was at 37. My first brand new built to my spec home I got at 31. So many want a new vehicle every few years. I try to stretch everything to the max. I was on my way to seeing retirement and had have a life changing surgery. My kids in their 30's and 40's complain that we didn't do big vacations. One thing is for sure, and thanks to P&T, my children will never have to take care of me or my wife. I see my own siblings being cared for by their families. Nothing wrong with that if it's for love. Let me restate I'll never be an unplanned burden to my kids. They will be able to live their own lives without parental need concerns.
    Thank You Mom and Dad for teaching me this. It was never clear why until the last few years. This old soldier will be at peace whenever it's time. 😊

    Why do you think VA doesn't want veterans to live the dream, those willing not to serve, often running VA, want their cake and eat it too. They didn't serve and want people who did to receive no benefit or advantage for their service. I truly believe in the phrase, those willing to sacrifice nothing are asking you to sacrifice everything.

    This video might be the most important video that veterans might ever watch. I read countless threads of veterans who finally hit the 100% mark and they talk about what they’re going to buy and honestly I cringe. This is specially true for the younger vets who need that guidance. Invest, invest, invest!! This is an opportunity that less than 1% of the population ever gets and we can’t squalor it. Don’t invest in individual stocks, instead look into either INDEX funds or real estate and in 10 years you will be sippin margaritas on a Caribbean island!

    People forget (or dont know) the difference between savings interest and mortgages. Rates for savings is APY (annual percentage yield) based on interest paid total per year calculated at divded interest by months. Mortgage is calculated daily, adding to debt so you pay interest on interest on a daily basis. It saves more money applying extra to payment than putting it savings. My 30 year Mortgage was paid off 10 years early by doing that saving me well over $40,000.

    Poor people say, “Can I afford this payment?” Rich people say, “How much?”
    I’m not a financial advisor and I encourage y’all to seek one for your own investments, but I invest in dividend stocks. Using VA disability, that stockpile and ROI will exponentially grow through the years. Next thing you know, you’re making an extra $75K+ a year in passive income (or more, or a lot more).
    Bottom line, live frugally, use cash, not credit (get rid of that crap), build equity in a home, and grow your portfolio.
    Smart money is winning money.

    What ticks me off the most with VA compensation is how a retiree with less than a 50% rating gets stuck paying their own compensation. Especially with all the other vets who didn't retire simply get a separate check from the VA. I paid at 40% for 20 years. Yes PACT Act helped but again they limited the amount of back compensation I was allowed. I never applied for CRSC to see if I qualified. But I might now although I am currently getting CRDP at 100% which will be reevaluated in a few more months. I am getting a lawyer soon to help me fight things.

      I invested. I retired early and have a 2 year emergency fund getting 4.6%. It’s enough to pay off my mortgage if I wanted to. 4.6% is greater than my 3% mortgage interest.
      When savings account interest drops (which it will) I’ll invest in bonds or CD’s. Low risk.

    The idea that "100% P&T" means you should not be able to work at all is absurd. 100% disability in the current economic state, if you aren't able to work because of that rating, means you have zero chance at the "American Dream" and you couldn't hope to go above that. You need to be able to do put in more effort of some kind to try to make your life as good as you can otherwise you are stuck at the constantly median because 100% isn't making a 6 figure income, it isn't being able to afford a nicer life now, depending on your location it might also just not be enough to pay the bills.
