WELCOME!

Confidently Prepared!™

Hi! I'm Kate! Accredited Financial Counselor®, Chartered Financial Consultant®, and Military Qualified Financial Planner®. I'm also the spouse of a retired sailor and mom of four young adults.

Here at the blog, I talk about the financial issues that affect military families - pay, allowances, and benefits. Plus college stuff, landlording, moving, taxes. We cover a little bit of everything.

My goal is to give you the tools to make the best decisions right now, so you'll be confidently prepared for whatever comes next - whether that's a PCS move, transition to civilian life, or retirement.

So grab a cup of coffee, tea, or whatever makes you happy, and let's get to know each other.

Confidently Prepared™ A Printable Binder to help your military family be ready for whatever surprises life throws at you next.
