can I get some advice on how to take advantage of this CZTE designation? This is my 1st deployment. (I am an officer, if that even matters any)

    I can put my entire paycheck into the Roth and/ or traditional IRA, I just dont know what to do. I have been contributing to a Roth IRA (at the max amount to get the match) since I commissioned. (I do get BAH and BAS)

    also, how do I set up the SDP account? can someone who has power of attorney set it up for the military member, instead of the military member?

    should I max this SDP? before or after which IRA?

    thank you all so much for your help.

      SDP can be set up through your finance office when you get to your deployment location. My location has a finance office on site—yours might not, but you should still have a servicing finance office

      I choose to max the SDP. It’s a guaranteed 10% return

      I also choose to max the Roth TSP and contribute extra to the traditional. Whether that’s right for you depends on your goals and personal situation.
