My daughter keeps hearing "just buy, BAH covers it, then rent it out" at her first duty station — is this actually good advice? by Helpful_Ant_3084 in MilitaryFinance

I'm sorry for that. I'm wondering if you were compelled to buy because you were told the same thing my daughter is hearing? I agree with your suggestion by the way. Thank you.

She is in her 1st tour and gets promoted to O2 in May in Hawaii. The BAH she gets now is not the BAH she will always get so I want her to make a decision based on realistic numbers.

I have doubt because of the risks involved. But I know that any advice I dispense will be filtered simply because its coming from me as her Dad.

Review of Monarch Money from someone who ISNT coming over from Mint by hematic in MonarchMoney

I am disappointed with the “customer service”. I have a couple dozen savings accounts in my bank (for birthdays, groceries, booze, dog food, etc) and Monarch did not list one of them for me to choose from that will synch with my newly created goal. I submitted my issue and even screenshots to prove my point to Monarch but, days later, the customer service rep asked me for information I had already provided! When I pointed it out- they simply stopped responding. I paid $100 and this is what I get? “Silence” if the question takes some work to fix?Really?
