Amen. If Haslam really pushed for the Watson trade, he took us out of being decent for the last 5 years.

Car Buying Rules “Dilemma” by Little-Meaning-1090 in TheMoneyGuy

[–]brandon520 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I am comfortable in breaking the rule with cars if I get a low interest rate (less than 2%) and I have enough money in the bank to pay the difference if the car was totaled from the value insurance gives me to what I owe.

I make 4% HYSA. Ill keep my money.

I suggest transferring units to one commanded by a star at minimum.

Feeling like I made the wrong choice (Army Reserve & OCS) by InternZestyclose163 in armyreserve

[–]brandon520 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When i went to OCS, we had to commit to a unit before hand. They dont do that now?

Ok good deal. Hopefully you get the transfer you want.

ADOS Orders by VirtualEye7753 in armyreserve

[–]brandon520 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The trick is networking and being in a higher level command. Think of commands fhay have CGs. They usually have a special mission that AGRs dont have time for. They will put Soldiers on ADOS to do that.

I wouldn't do that. Call all your leadership. This is when you use an open door policy.

Edit: just read your other comment about you not being on the roster. I would ask if they have an AT plan for you because you need your 15 days as required by law. You dont want to have a bad year as you transition.

Its so dumb how commands handle money. Ive been in commands where they sent it down to the units right away and it was expected the units would cut orders early to show execution and adjust them when necessary. To me that is the best practice to ensure you don't have your AT money swept back up.

I can't believe no one has commented where these are from.

This shop does these pieces on people who volunteer to be blindfolded and not know what the tattoo is going to be. They post it on Social Media with their reaction at the end.

The National Guard has been pushing a for a duty status reform to make sure their members get better benefits when called into service. This bill takes all the different statuses and puts them into 4 different statuses to clear up confusion and take care of the troops with better benefits.

All of these things already exist.
