Let’s say you devote your life to military service. You enrol in officer training and work up the ranks until one day you are a general with combat experience in whichever country the States decided had too much oil. American Generals, and Admirals make are O-10 level employees and make a base salary of $203,000 a year, with generous benefits and bonuses for deployment. That’s good money to most people, especially when it continues as a lifetime military pension of $180,000, every single year, for doing nothing, once you have put in your twenty years of service. Service men and women EARN every last cent of this money and people who have dedicated their lives to serving in our armed forces should be looked after, the system is much better at looking after the top brass than the common soldier, but that’s besides the point. I could never do this job and I respect anybody that can, at least I did until the world started learning about what they do after their career comes to an end (or just get’s started depending on how you look at it) The retirement benefits of a military general should be good enough for anybody to live of off, but some don’t see it this way. Some think that Generals are basically chief executives of large organisations with tens of thousands of employees, handling billions of dollars, and working on the most challenging projects in the world. When you put it like that, the public service pay scale starts to look a bit mediocre… Leaders in the private sector are making millions of dollars a year for the same level of work and they don’t spend their time in active warzones. So to set things right, high level military leaders have taken a page out of the investment banking interns playbook. It’s not about the money they are making right now, it’s about the job they CAN get once they have padded out their resume a bit. So it’s time to learn how money works to find out how America’s top military leadership are using their careers to score obscenely lucrative contracts with some not so friendly governments. ----- #howmoneyworks #retirementplanning #military Edited By: Andrew Gonzales Music Courtesy of: Epidemic Sound Select Footage Courtesy of: Getty Images For sponsorship inquiries, please contact sponsors@worksmedia.group
