I finished my service but I love seeing this, I was borderline homeless before the military. Finished my service, got my bachelors for free while getting a allowance and having a blast in college. Got a great job after. If you take advantage of the benefits, the military is an amazing foundation to jump start your life regardless of the cards dealt to you financially.
@@georgemartyn5268 Sorry for the late response. I majored in Information Sciences and Technology, also got a minor in Supply Chain. I got a job as a Data Analyst, after some years I was able to land a job as a Software Engineer. My only regret is I should of chose a job in the military that would transfer to the civilian world better, but I didn't want a "nerd" job in the military because I knew I could always do that in the civilian world.
It all depends on rank, location, and time in service. I didn’t start making six figures until I was an E6 in the Navy. I made 96k in Upstate New York, 140k in Bahrain, and 125k in Spain.
Bro how... I've been in 8 years and I just hit $85k before taxes. Where in Spain can an E6 make 125k??? Rota? Moron? There's no mf way. OHA and COLA are low asf out there. A modern 3 bedroom house in Cadiz is like 1100 Euro a month. It's cheap.
I just took the E6 exam (navy) for the first time this September! I was making more money in San Diego than I do now in Japan. I would say location! Location! Location!
So happy for all of you that have served or are serving that are making a great salary - if anyone deserves it is you guys and gals - thank you for your service
Its so good to see another black man who is also a brother in arms in the world of tech and software engineering Im active duty army and self teaching myself code. Keep up the good work man!
I graduated with a CIS degree, focused on programming I’m going to the army for 25b, I plan to also do a coding boot camp. It warms my heart to see a brother who codes !
What has colour got to do with anything. If I said , it's good to see another white brother in arms in tech there would be an upcry of RACIST. Double fucking standards.
@creigiihtondenynis39 - You made that money while living in one of the most expensive cities in the U.S. That's like someone being stationed in Brooklyn, NY (San Fransico is approx. 5% more expensive) and trying to flex that they made $100k in a year. But, when someone with at least a little common sense did some research, it can easily be determined the money was made via base pay (rank/time in service), separate rations, BHA*, and maybe the addition of special duty pay. But take them off of special duty, and PCS them to a place like Oklahoma, Kansas, Alabama, they won't be making anywhere near $100k. You get the extra money to help cushion the high cost of living in specific areas. Nothing more, nothing less. * BHA w/dependents - $44,208yr. (E-6), $50,652yr. (O-3) Rent alone for a 3 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, NY can start at $38,500yr. and up a month.
A lot of people undervalue their compensation package in the armed forces of the US. I had to start civil service as a GS11 just to equate (with my pension) what I made on active duty. I left civil service two years ago and dont make near what I did on active duty (hold several academic degrees).
For me it was a 50% cut while transitioning from AD to civil service. When I retired GS 3 years ago, I took a major cut (60%), but that's ok as I now have two pensions. My pensions and corporate salary have me at 70% of my GS pay, but since Im saving less, I dont notice much of a difference. If an AD member is not properly education and certified, they are in for a shock regaring pay.@@AndresLopez-sq5ks
Because they can't use it. If I make say $200,000 working for company Y but they give me a really nice house to live in with all utilities paid for, a car, a gas card so I never pay for gas, they cover vehicle maintenance, free groceries, free cell phone, the best medical/dental/vision insurance, and they pay for any clothes I want but I bring home 3000 a month cash after taxes then I won't feel like I'm making 200k. On top of that you still have to deal with military treatment. Let's say I'm the best military dude on the planet, not Rambo or anything just a really squared away guy, do my job, never get in trouble, always look professional. And let's say someone else goes out drinking, hops in their car and crashes into a light pole. Now I, along with the rest of the unit, have to get in trouble because of him. That's not worth my little "$200k" a year
I’m not smart like you in the tech field but hopefully I can do something similar, sounds like a lot of fun and you’re definitely playing your cards right
Watching this in 2023 makes me wish I had taken the opportunity to convert to AGR 2 years ago when I had the chance… BAH is much better and ends up making me more money than technician or comparable civilian jobs (without overtime)
@@nathanlampkin6511 AGR stands for ACTIVE GUARD RESERVE. It’s basically a full time position in a guard base under orders. There is also what’s called a technician which is a full time job at a guard base under title 32 which pays you as a civilian (not ACTIVE ORDERS) and has a slightly different set of benefits. It’s a good way of making more money especially in certain career fields as a junior enlisted but if you live in a higher cost of living area it just makes more sense to “convert” to AGR so you can make more money by the time you make E-6. The technician pay plateaus. Whereas AGR is like active duty and continues to grow in a linear manner. On top of that, title 32 has to work 30 years to earn a retirement. Obviously active duty/AGR is only 20.
If you are muslim, christian, jewish, hindu, etc a religion which serves food that is outside your religion, go to your chaplain and talk to him about a meal deductions stoppage. He'll say you cant do that, you say you want an exemption to policy. You WILL get the money if you keep trying
Sheesh that BAH/BAS adds up. And if I’m not mistaken when you TDY overseas you don’t get any taxes taken out of your base pay. Correct me if I’m wrong on this. Also thank you for your service
Im curious as to what job you went into in the military? As well as how would you go about letting the air force know youre interested in thrse business trips! Thanks for the video and i hope to hear from you!

How'd you swing a 6-month TDY to Section 31? I'm a Supra Coder in the Space Force and got to go out there for a few days to tour, but would've been sick to go out there to work a project long term.

Hey thinking about joining the airforce , you said you where rejected 4 times before being able to join? was just curious on how often that happens... was it just because of the job that you wanted ? or another reason?
Per diem lands in my bank account as cash. I lived in a $5k house on the beach. That money didn’t go in my bank but I surely benefited from it as if it did
@@JeremiahPeoples That doesn't change anything. You chose to scrimp on your food to take advsantage of your food reimbursement. That doesn't make it pay. It's an expense based on calculated average food costs in the area. Your $5k house was purely due to the extreme high costs of the area. It only worked out due to the length of the TDY. And this specific case is an extremely rare occurance.
If married you get family sep pay. Also, stay out of debt and invest in the ROTH option for the TSP. Shield as much money away from the govt as possible.
So I can use my VA loan to buy a house with multiple bedrooms, and other Airman (friends likely) can stay and pay me rent? You’re allowed to do this? If your friends don’t want to live in the dorms anymore and want to stay at your place and pay you do they need to seek permission and all that???
You just have to also be staying in the house at the same time? I did hear somewhere you can’t use that VA loan and buy a home and rent to random people then go use it again and buy another house and live in that one..? A video explaining the advantages and tricks of the VA loan would be sweet!
you technically have to live in or "intend to live in" the house for 1 year. after that you can convert the loan into a conventional one. You can then use your VA loan again on another property.
Great video Jeremiah, lots of great insights! I’m going in as an E3 next week. How long would it take to make it to E4, is it solely based on TIS? Thanks in advance!
Nope you gotta pay for it. When you live off base they give your BAS your food allowance in cash. When you live on base that allowance is automatically deducted from your pay
@JeremiahPeoples is it expensive do they weight the food or per plate or is just per person like a buffet were u just pay at the front and can keep getting up for food
hey I have a question, what kind of knowledge do you need to have as a software engineer to get one of those types of incentives? I know javascript and some markup language like css, html...

Active Duty Air Force. I've worked 12hr days for 15 days of the month, and now I work a 9-5. I can only speak for my experience as an Airman, but the hours a typically like a civ job.
If I buy a house near my base, will the AF pay for my mortgage, or only the BAH can be paid towards my mortgage? What happens when I deploy? Will I still get the BAH to pay towards my mortgage?
Near can be anywhere within like 45m to 1hr You can buy a house with $0 down with a va loan. You always get your BAH if you live off base even if you’re deployed . You can use your bah for anything you want. Live in a van, a spare bedroom of a friends place, rent or a mortgage
How did you get to live off base if you were single with no dependents? Is there a way to do that early on or you have to be in for a while to do that?
Thanks for the video Jeremiah While living in the doom do you still get BAH? Im going in as an E3 when given your base pay are taxes reduction not done? If taxe reduction is done how much can your pay be after tax reduction? How long does it take to access the VA loan? After using the VA loan and youre repaying are you still given BAH allowance which can help repay the loan? Please i need answers
Congrats! Going Air Force? Bah bas are tax free I believe Once you complete your basic training you have access to va loan. Most people don’t use it until you move off base and you receive the bah in cash When you’re in the dorm you get paid bah and then all of it is deducted from your pay because you’re receiving a “government provided place to live” Yes your bah you can use to pay your va loan. You keep what is left over
could you talk about your hair? im thinking about joining the air force and i wanted to know how i could keep my hair. Well not my locs, but if i were to go to a fro again.

@@JeremiahPeopleswhen you sign up do you automatically get an id. Or do you have to wait?
You gotta pass basic
I have a question, if you’re in the military do your dependents eat at the dining facilities as well
Is the chart amount paid monthly? Like 2k paid every month for a year for the salary??
Commissioned officers do not draw BAS.
WOAH WOAH WOAH THERE BUDDY, 12:46 did you just say you where rejected?! how and at which stage did you get rejected? from witch branch?
MEPS
If I buy a house near my base, will the AF pay for my mortgage, or only the BAH can be paid towards my mortgage? What happens when I deploy? Will I still get the BAH to pay towards my mortgage?
Near can be anywhere within like 45m to 1hr
You can buy a house with $0 down with a va loan.
You always get your BAH if you live off base even if you’re deployed .
You can use your bah for anything you want. Live in a van, a spare bedroom of a friends place, rent or a mortgage
Thank you! Can you mention some of the areas where the BAH is the highest?
@@shujayethossain6554 every high cost of living city. Google bah calculator
the bus has 10 rows with 4 seats in each row. the program should perform the following
Please how to solve this
How did you get to live off base if you were single with no dependents? Is there a way to do that early on or you have to be in for a while to do that?
in the air force they let you off after 1 year of being on base. no other branch does that to my knowledge
@JeremiahPeoples oh ok thank you very much, looking to join at 38 so I'm trying to get in shape or I'll be dying lol
Nice vid, btw "Per diem" literally means "per day"
Why were you rejected the first four times?
medical reasons
Or be an officer!
Could you please do the same calculations for pilots?
Crazy smart renting out a room in the crib
I like to think so
Hey man thanks for the vidéo.
I speak french, does it count?
Do the USAF allow you to serve with that haircut? Coz it's awesome if they do
Yup
U have any idea what is operational management in the air force? And what i can do with that job When i get out.
Check out program management or product management. Tech PMs is where the money is
Thanks for the video Jeremiah
While living in the doom do you still get BAH?
Im going in as an E3 when given your base pay are taxes reduction not done? If taxe reduction is done how much can your pay be after tax reduction?
How long does it take to access the VA loan?
After using the VA loan and youre repaying are you still given BAH allowance which can help repay the loan?
Please i need answers
Congrats! Going Air Force?
Bah bas are tax free I believe
Once you complete your basic training you have access to va loan. Most people don’t use it until you move off base and you receive the bah in cash
When you’re in the dorm you get paid bah and then all of it is deducted from your pay because you’re receiving a “government provided place to live”
Yes your bah you can use to pay your va loan. You keep what is left over
@@JeremiahPeoples Thank you so much sir
Please for how long do I have to live in the dorm before I can access bah?
@@njobekaadele5709 for me it was 1 year at my first duty station. But that’s only the case for air force
@@JeremiahPeoples okay Thank you so much sir

Pay went up since 2021 right?
Oh for sure!
I have me degree in CIS but I don’t have experience but I’m thinking about joining the air force because I’m not doing anything with Mr degree. Should I join?
Are you still in? Does the AF take issue with posting monetized content in uniform?
They prefer it
@@JeremiahPeoples because it’s a recruiting tool? Any regs or rules I can find about it? Considering starting a channel myself
@@travis3567 lol no I was making joke, it depends on your leadership and how strict they want to take the regs. There are regs, typically you’re fine if you’re not IN uniform for your videos, not attempting to represent your branch, and not disclosing any sensitive information you have access to
I love how he forgot he was in the airforce 😅
NOTI GANG
So fast with it 🔥
Did you have a car before joining?or At what point did you get a vehicle?
Got one after I joined
how much is the mid month pay of an enlisted member ?
I live in Florida as an E5 with housing pay and I get like $2300 every two weeks. But that’s only common for the Air Force.
@@JeremiahPeoples Please I have a two year diploma from in Philosophy from a catholic seminary in Italy aside my West African high school diploma, my desire is to become a pilot so I would like to go to officer training school. what do I need to do and is it possible?
Bachelors in social sciences but worked in natural resources & outdoor recreation work so not sure what job in the AF or that relates to my field if I decide to switch my interest to Air Force that I can or talk to a recruiter about, if this other branch process doesn’t work, any advice?
