- winning with winans: Hey Ross, what's your feeling right now about the military's efforts on financial education? I'm thinking about mainly active duty. Do you feel that the military is taking some role and helping our, you know, our military personnel learn about finance, about home finance? I don't. But I I guess having been a commander with high optempo. During the nineties there was a lot of deployments between Desert Storm and later going to Iraq. I think the military as a whole, like think of what's going on in the Navy now, mainly the Navy and the Air Force in Iran, right? Or even the ground troops that were in Iraq and Afghanistan for twenty two years, the optempo is such that they're focused on the next mission. And in a blink of an eye, a kid with a four-year contract is on his way out. And if he didn't have some financial s help from his mentoring with his family and just winging it on his own, there's huge room for improvement.
