Hi everyone . I am a 24 year old female about to join the navy. Before enlisting I just want to know what I should do to financial set myself up for example : bank accounts i should set up, investments I should be interested in, the Tsp, etc. I want to be able to set myself up right from the jump.
I went to start off the right way

I suggest getting a NavyFed account. Also, make sure you put at least 5% of your paycheck into the TSP; so the DOD will match 5%. However you won’t get the full match until after a year iirc. If you’re getting a bonus put a % of that into your TSP as well.
