I was hoping to get some guidance of where I should be focusing on putting my income. For some context I’m 20 and have not yet arrived at my duty station. Primarily if I should be putting it into a HYSA or a retirement account (TSP/Roth IRA). I‘m an E3 with less than two years of service in the Army. I’m currently putting the standard 5% into my TSP and not adding anything regularly to my personal roth. I have roughly $3k in my personal Roth and $600 in my TSP. I have larger expenses coming up within the next year to year and a half, ex. wedding and buying a car, knowing that I have these larger expenses coming up should I still be trying to put as much as I can into my Roth or should I just be saving money in my current HYSA?
