Milspouse Matters Episode 38 with Mark Steffe

Welcome to episode 38 of Milspouse Matters! On this episode, I’m talking to Mark Steffe from First Command, who’s sharing some very practical budgeting and financial tips for military families. He talks about ways to stay on track with your financial goals, even during this historic time of job losses and furloughs due to the coronavirus pandemic.

First, I want to thank the sponsor of this episode, First Command. Here’s what you’ll find on today’s episode:

I’m also sharing some listener comments and feedback. Reminder—please let me know what topics you’d like to hear coming up, and leave me reviews and comments and I’ll read them on the show!

During my chat with Mark, he shares:

  • Money saving tips you can start using today
  • What financial planning is
  • Why you don’t have to have tons of extra cash to start saving now
  • How you can get help if you’re in debt
  • How First Command can help you meet your long term goals (did you know their financial planning is free for military and dependents?)
  • Tips for what you should do if you have extra income such as COLA, special duty pay (or a stimulus check!)
  • The portable careers military spouses can pursue with First Command.
