We Make $263K A Year In California — And Saved Nearly $500K In Our 20s

Elon: 😡

Let me be clear, I have nothing against this family: they are taking full advantage of their excellent benefit structure and being incredibly smart with their investments not to mention their approach to life in general.

BUT... a housing stipend higher than what the average American earns in a month? Tuition and student loan write offs? Free healthcare, subsidized childcare and food allowances for professionals making six figures?

Tell me again how the US Military is not a socialist organization.

Air Force paid for my bachelors, masters, pilot training, follow on aircraft training(s) and now my PhD. There’s a lot of give (particularly family sacrifice), but overall it’s been a good ride so far.

Two officers with BAH married and kids? You think these are normal people?

I am surprised that for once you guys finally interviewed someone who isn’t a finance influencer who is selling crappy courses to defraud people

How can they contribute $1160/mo in Roth IRA if they make $263k/yr combined? You would have to file taxes married filed separately and can not have lived together? What am i missing

Not inspired your dreams have to be higher

unless the DOD paychart is wrong, I don't know how airforce is paying more than army

They not only serving our country but they also have great skills set!!! They save!!! Not wasteful!!!

If they can stomach the military for another 14 ish years, they get to retire with a pension at around age 42 as well.

High pay (thanks to the public) and free almost everything (thanks to the public), you are welcome military.

Im a stay at home mom, and me & husband save between $7,200-$7,900 a month. We sold our home, currently renting. We are tasting financial freedom. We currently have a CD with a credit union and will mature next September. We are wanting to invest in the S&p 500 and SPYI.

Any thought's?

If you find a partner with common sense you have hit the jackpot! You will raise a good family, be financially secure and will be happy.

I am shocked.

Don’t forget Cali takes almost 100k in taxes with their income 😂

Congrats. They seem like like a nice young military couple.

Ah yes pls support your a small business girly aka me! Affordable but cute quality items 💕 Etsy: SoKozy

6 figures is the new middle class. Nothing to see here, folks. 😢 I’m more concerned about the number of enlisted and vets that leave with chronic health conditions like Cancer.

Mil to mil = millionaire… especially on the O side

Woo hoo! MSC represent! As a former MSC Officer I achieved FIRE 🔥 at 35 and am now a full time investor. So happy for y’all!!!

He’s 30. So how is he his 20s?😂

Military bombing destroying other countries

Good job guys

Sorry, nobody’s believing your BS. You’re properly living in the basement of your parents house. Making only fans content.

They'll be getting military retirement in their 40s.

Such a lovely family !!

Okay they are officers sounds realistic enlisted get the short end of the stick.

I'm genuinely impressed by these two. They seem like a grounded couple living life to the fullest as smartly as they possibly can.

That housing allowance is a game changer. Almost like cheating.

Thy dont move they dont blink their eyes ... when speaking

Nice story. The military is always a great option for people. The opportunity for great pay, good benefits, and great job security. They will never have to worry about being out of work.

This should be in marketing for the military n

I was in the USAF for four years and left as an E4 back during that conflict. Money wasn't great at all but it was interesting.

My cousin made the USAF a career and retired a full bird colonel. She did really well for herself and is now enjoying the fruits of her labor.

That’s a nice allowance . Not even veterans receive this much?

not only do they make crazy amounts of money that even Engineers don't get to make but the state governments will give them lifetime pensions equal to 80% of their salary when they retire, must be nice. The money these days is in government jobs while private sector white collar jobs are being shipped to India and China.

Yes. Very possible to earn 6 figures in your 20s. I did it. AFROTC at UT Austin followed by 24 years active duty service with multiple deployments. This family has established and is executing a flawless financial flightplan. I wish them well.

Amazing & inspiring young couple. I've been watching @ramitsethi, so many good ideas in his toolbelt.

Dixon! My cousin in law lives there!

Military members CAN be rich. I know several reserve members that have high paying careers outside of the military. And even some that are contractors or have their own businesses. It’s such an amazing thing to see these service members do better in the civilian world.

I keep telling everybody the military is a cheat code.

funded by good ol' uncle sam... no rlly suddenely a military career seems so promising!! wow!

Good luck with your cancer treatments. I'm sure you WILL reach your desired retirement age :)

One thing I regret is not joining the Air Force straight out of high school. Wasted my 20s but got my life together in my 30s. Im happy for them.

So basically they have no social life or go anywhere fun? I’d have a million in the bank by now. You only live once

As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest,on which platform? If you know any please share.

I suggest you follow these guys in the coming 20 years.
I guarantee with the atrocities they are doing to the rest of the world like what they did in Gaza, this couple will end up homeless.
Mark my words.

So happy and proud of them

This bright couple is what gives our country hope. I wish them the Best and Thank them for their service.

Hold up. The airforce gets zippers on their working uniform???
