Welcome to Military Money Matters
May 13 2008
By popular demand, we are launching a blog designed to support active duty, National Guard and Reserve service members and their spouses in all financial matters. We will provide timely advice on smart money moves, stretching your paycheck as far as possible in these challenging financial times, common pitfalls in retirement, college planning for kids, estate and insurance planning and how to maximize your military benefits. We will also be commenting on national and international financial issues, stock market moves and other issues that may affect your bottom line.
In addition to MOAA’s expert staff of benefits specialists and certified financial planners, our readers will benefit from the knowledge of guest bloggers from several of our key partners, including USAA, Pentagon Federal Credit Union and others.
We welcome your comments on military pay, military benefits, special military deployment programs and general financial issues such as budgeting, debt repayment, college savings, retirement savings, insurance planning and estate planning.
If you have questions or want additional information, call or write MOAA at 1-800-234-6622 or email at beninfo@moaa.org. Submitting a question through the comments on this blog will not necessarily get you an answer. Comments on this blog are considered social networking and not official contact with MOAA.
You must be a MOAA member if you are eligible for MOAA…former officers, retired officers, currently service officers.
