Service members and their families are a protected group when it comes to their finances. The Department of Defense intentionally protects the military community from predatory financial sales practices while they are serving. Those protections are no longer there when you separate or retire, making transitioning service members top targets of predatory sales practices.
In this episode, Drew Stamp discusses what service members and their families are up against when they’re leaving the military and how to educate themselves and combat bad actors in the financial and veteran space. We also discuss whether all the benefits the community receives could negatively affect them.

The relationship between money and marriage can be complex especially when you add military service to the mix. When you bring two different backgrounds to a relationship and if you’ve had marital problems, managing money together can be all the more challenging.

Separating or retiring comes with changes in many areas of your life and money. One of those often overlooked big changes is your taxes.
What you did or didn’t pay in taxes looks a lot different after military service.
In this episode, Matt Stephens and I discuss what the tax differential wage equivalent is, why it matters, and how it can significantly impact your financial decisions as you move from military to civilian life. Show notes: https://milmo.co/podcast/tax-reality-every-veteran-needs/
It’s my Birthday Week on the MILMO® Show. Every year for my birthday, I like to interview someone special in my life. In past years, I’ve interviewed my Mom, Dad, and my 97-year-old grandmother. This year is no different. I have a very special guest to help me celebrate my birthday on the show.
In this episode, my brother, Brian Flanigan is in the hot seat answering all of my questions. He shares the biggest challenges he has faced retiring from the Air Force, the best thing he got out of the military and advice for people getting ready to separate or retire. He even shares his experience of being diagnosed and fighting cancer on active duty.

Not everyone tracks the state of the economy, but when the news reports that it’s taking a nosedive, that usually gets people's attention. There is one thing at the heart of our economy that can help you have a better understanding of how it all works, and that’s the federal funds rate.
In this episode, I’m going to break down what the federal funds rate is. Who sets it? And most importantly, why should you, as someone managing your or your family’s finances, care about it?

Have you ever had an idea to make a product that other people might be willing to buy? Many of us have, but how do you take your idea and get it produced and packaged to sell? You also need to have the resilience, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit to get it done.
In this episode, Air Force veteran, Haley McClain Hill shares her behind-the-scenes experience building TORCH Warriorwear, a company born from her military background and entrepreneurial spirit. We talk about how she turned an idea to be more comfortable in uniform into a global brand, secured partnerships with major organizations, and even landed a deal on ABC's Shark Tank.

You know that feeling when you bite off way more of a burrito than you can chew? It's overwhelming. Instead of enjoying the taste and appreciating the awesome sustenance, you’re panicky and scared you’ll choke to death. Well, that’s exactly what many of us do with our finances. We set massive goals, take it too much information, and try to tackle everything at once. Then we end up feeling overwhelmed, paralyzed, and defeated. But great news, there's a better way.
In this episode, I’m going to break down why taking small, consistent bites out of your financial goals is the secret to lasting success. I’ll share practical strategies to make your money moves more manageable, celebrate small wins, and motivate you along the way.
