New Retired Affairs Office Report Issued

Recently the military's Retiree Affairs Office released a huge review of current military and veterans' issues. CLICK HERE for their December 2014 report. CLICK HERE for their equally-helpful October 2014 report, which includes an excellent article debunking the supposed-advantages of the Redux retirement option and its 15-year $30,000 bonus...which ends up costing retirees hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost retirement benefits compared to regular retirement plans.

Tom Philpott also did a great article on this scheme, so horrible a blow to military members it makes the military one of the worst predators around.
