know a guy that makes six figures annually on disability due to “PTSD”, but still works on a $75k salary.
No you don’t, because PTSD maxes out at 70%.
So either you or him are full of shite.

You don't get reimbursed for the same amount for moving from Ft Benning to Ft Hood, as you do for moving from Hood to Korea, for example.
Have another buddy that’s active military and our tax dollars pay him $20k every three years when he moves, if he moves his own shite.

You can literally google to see VA disability payment amounts. Ain’t nobody making $6-7k/mo on VA disability.

I just ran the PCM pay for an O6 with three kids, 2 POCs, 3000 miles, 9 travel days, and 15,000 pounds of HHG, and it came out to 17,387.61.
Gonna be hell to clear $20k on a DITY PCS.
I have to admit I never did a PCS once on Bragg you stay on Bragg. Endless TIY though.

Hey look smart veterans using their earned benefits. Everyone in this thread could have joined but chose not too. Quit bitching.

Vets get worse pay for more responsibility and danger than their LEO counterparts. I am ok with them getting more govt $ in their bank account.

Partner made the mistake of hiring one of these people once. I quickly realized I was looking at a perfectly normal healthy man in his late 30’s who was more interested in scamming the government than he was in being an effective employee or earning an honest living.
Glad a competitor offered him way more than he was worth to leave so I didn’t have to fire his sorry arse.

I'm actually impressed by the amount of blatantly false info in here. Quite a few of you should probably stop believing what your buddy told you bc it's mostly bullshite.

There shouldnt be a limit to how much you can make on VA disability but people that were shoe clerks that some how get a 100% rating should be investigated.
I’m looking at you, finance personnel.

ehh
I certainly don't object to Veterans getting benefits and I candidly don't even mind if they work the system a bit at my/taxpayer expense.
But it's not about jealousy for what they're getting, to me it's about a seemingly (from the outside) messed up system that to some extent rewards a lot of people who were minimally in harm's way and suffered minimal physical/mental ramifications while those who left service with major issues from combat struggle to get everything they need because of bureaucracy.
Maybe that's not in fact the case, and good if so, but for an outsider that's what it looks like.

Most of the people I know on a VA rating are full of shite. If not completely, at least in part.

man the Financial Audit show makes me feel so much better about my savings and finances in general.
Most people and by most 90% plus lie to you about their finances
Almost everyone is a blow hard and I am talking about doctors too. Want to find the big ballers find your quiet finance guys. That’s where the money is.
There is a difference in having money and making money.
Most women are so stupid they just look at the husband and his potential career rather than the entire family.

Ps I hope both of these people go to jail.
