the Modern survivor benefit plan alternative
According to the DOD: SBP alone is not a complete estate plan. At US VetWealth we offer other insurance, investments, and education for your needs outside the scope of SBP alone.

Probability of getting SBP payments back
*DOD Office of the Actuary statistics show that there is less than 50% probability on average of getting a refund of SBP premiums in the form of beneficiary payments. This means that for the average retiring officer who will be committing almost $200K for SBP payment could have had that money work more efficiently in the Spouse Benefit and Family Legacy Plan.
Military Retirement isn’t just for the service member; it's for the family, too.
LTC (R) - US Army
Thank you, Scott. You really opened my eyes to the possibilities of making my money work for me in a tailored solution that makes sense for my personal situation, maintaining security while allowing wealth generation with the flexibility to adjust going forward as means, needs and goals change. I think all transitioning service members should take advantage of your advice and services.
For the first time ever, I can honestly say that someone with scary skills and an unparalleled level of integrity has MY BACK. US VetWealth is pulling open the curtain and exposing the good, bad, and ugly behind what military families are being sold. Thank you. Truly.
