The Airlines are my dream, but i'm not willing to go broke over them, which is why i developed this little plan. |
You'd only be able to save $30k in 4 years while saving 90% of your post-tax salary? It has to be more than that. I live in Virginia Beach and there are sailors all over my apartment complex driving BRAND NEW Mercedes, BMW's, Audi's, Navigators, etc. They're young too.
$30k/4 years = $7500/year
Spending 10%, that means you're brining in only $8333 after tax/year. At that tax bracket, you're looking at $12,000/yr gross pay. That seems low, even for the enlisted military.
