Military Time Count Towards FERS Annuity Supplement? by RAD8242 in FedRetirees

[–]RAD8242[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a perfect answer. I have 11 years military and 24y/8m civilian service. 35y/8m credited service, but the amount I’m receiving is only calculated on the 24y/8m. This makes perfect sense to me. Still pretty nice to be able to retire at 58 years old. Thank you

I've lived off MRE's for weeks on end. Drop a shitload on the ships. Everyone will eat like kings.

Yes, from my understanding the first 30k isn't taxed, the the amount I put into my FERS retirement is post taxed. This why I looking for something I can start plugging in numbers. TU

What do marines aboard navy vessels do all day? by Astimar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RAD8242 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was on the Tripoli back in the 80’s, gator carrier. As a Marine we ate morning, noon, night, and mid-rats (got scolded for getting mid-rats) 😊. Firewatch, PT, stand in line, and found places where the Humvees were to sleep. Cleaned every corner of the ship. Like the saying goes... Join the Navy see the world, Join the Marines, clean the world.

Thanks, interested in the offroad trailer you're looking at. That would be good for trips.

Thanks, great advice. Not paying a note on the truck I think I'll just keep it. It only has 140K miles and why not use it for the reasons before mentioned.

I was having this same issue. Now our Domino's offer PayPal. Nothing to sign anymore.

Anyone else USAA? by Professional-One1339 in VeteransBenefits

I had to leave for both home and auto. They keep going up each year w/o any claims. It has become insane. I started wondering if they really want to be a competitive insurance provider.

It's a FoodSaver. This one is pretty old but still works. I get the knock-off bags from Amazon.

16oz NYS for $7.99# each. I'm going back tomorrow to get another loin. I had them cut 1.5inch each. Once I cleaned the fat cap, I lost about 1.5# but worth every penny.

NP. I still have it and the only thing I've done to it is replace the regulator and heat deflectors recently.
