West Point graduate, veteran, and former "financial advisor" Scott R. Tucker pulls back the curtain on military/veteran financial planning to reveal the true risks confronting retired military when they do "all the rights things," like getting a job post-military and investing in a traditional retirement vehicle like a 401(K) or TSP. He brings to the forefront of his discussion what the military and most veteran financial advisors usually gloss over as they focus on military retirement plans: the moment that you leave the military is the biggest opportunity of your lifetime, and you're going to need money for it.In Veteran Wealth Secrets, Tucker teaches:? To change the way that you think about the value of your military service, the advantages you have as a member of the retired military community, and investing while you are still in the military;? How to understand what is going on in our country socially and politically and what it could mean for your future;? Why you must overcome challenges like limiting beliefs;? How to create a personal brand for your veteran small business and how to leverage that brand using the tools of the modern economy;? How to develop a modern skillset that you can use to find the job of your dreams or create a business that will take you from military to millionaire;? How to understand compound interest, assets, and what the real risks are when it comes to traditional financial vehicles; and? How you can use a secret veteran financial weapon to sock money away where it can grow without risk and be there for you when you need it.This book is NOT about money, and neither is military financial planning. Rather, both are about identity and transformation. They are about getting to a clear-eyed understanding of who you have been, what you want, and who you want to become.

"The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

The U.S. military has been continuously engaged in foreign conflicts for over two decades. The strains that these deployments, the associated increases in operational tempo, and the general challenges of military life affect not only service members but also the people who depend on them and who support them as they support the nation â€" their families. Family members provide support to service members while they serve or when they have difficulties; family problems can interfere with the ability of service members to deploy or remain in theater; and family members are central influences on whether members continue to serve. In addition, rising family diversity and complexity will likely increase the difficulty of creating military policies, programs and practices that adequately support families in the performance of military duties. Strengthening the Military Family Readiness System for a Changing American Society examines the challenges and opportunities facing military families and what is known about effective strategies for supporting and protecting military children and families, as well as lessons to be learned from these experiences. This report offers recommendations regarding what is needed to strengthen the support system for military families.
