Why Beyond TSP?

My family, aka, my reason for caring about money.

BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT:

NOBODY who ever raised their right hand and pledged to give their life, if necessary, in defense of the Constitution should live in poverty.

That, in a nutshell, is what Beyond TSP is all about. It’s about giving back to my fellow veterans in the form of teaching you how to have power over your finances. It’s about giving you tools to actually achieve financial freedom, and stop living paycheck-to-paycheck. It’s about showing you that it is possible to build wealth on a military paycheck.

Beyond TSP is dedicated to helping military members, veterans, and their families go beyond the traditional Thrift Savings Plan-based investment strategy, and talk about not only some tweaks and tricks that you can make within your TSP plan, but also what other tools and resources are out there to increase your financial knowledge and readiness.

Right up front, you need to know that I’m a supply officer by trade, not a finance troop or anything like that. I’m not a professional financial advisor, and you shouldn’t take anything you read or hear from me as financial gospel. I don’t have a degree or an accreditation of any kind.

What I do have is a story. My story is the story of starting out fourteen years ago as just another broke Second Lieutenant, with $25k in debt, to now having a total net worth north of $450k, just by doing simple, uncomplicated things with my money.

Beyond TSP is based on my own personal experience creating budgets, learning about investing, and growing my own personal net worth that I want to share with you, to help you accomplish your goals.

If that sounds like something you’re interested in, and you’re tired of the same old “experts” shouting in your face about how many vacation homes they have, and how buying their $997 course will get YOU your first vacation home (!) then you’ve come to the right place.
