Too many vets burn their GI Bill on degrees that never pay off. On this episode of Warrior Money, Army MP sergeant and GuideOn founder Ashley Gorbulja breaks down how she earned four degrees debt-free, stacked scholarships, and used the National Guard advantage to turn education into a strategic business move instead of a checklist. She explains how to align your core values with career goals, plan benefits across states and programs, and avoid leaving disability compensation and scholarship money on the table. Ashley also shares how AI, trades, and veteran entrepreneurship are reshaping what smart education choices look like after service for the Yahoo Finance audience of vets and investors planning their next chapter.

Yahoo Finance's Warrior Money, hosted by former Congressman Patrick Murphy and veteran investor Dan Kunze, is dedicated to uplifting the financial well-being of military veterans transitioning into civilian life. Each week, an array of guests—from everyday vets to high-ranking government officials—offer insight on successfully making the leap from service to business.
