Establishing Financial Goals and Spending Plans

Where to Find the Resources You Need

We recently teamed up with the Office of Financial Readiness (FINRED) for a video series featuring Justin Hall and AAFMAA Chief Operating Officer & Secretary, Jerry Quinn. Together they present smart tips servicemembers should follow to help ensure your financial preparedness for whatever life may bring your way. In this second part of the series, we look at some practical steps you can take today to set your financial goals, and how FINRED’s financial counseling resources can help you achieve them.


To start you on your financial readiness journey, we invite you to watch the second video in the series below and follow the rest of the series on LinkedIn and YouTube using hashtag #MilitaryMoneyTips.


Ways to jumpstart your financial readiness:

  • Establish long-term goals and baseline net worth tracking.
  • Build a spending plan that reflects your goals, and review it over time.
  • Reach out to an on-base counselor for assistance.

Watch the full financial readiness series here.
