156: "Ask for help. Veterans love helping other veterans. Veterans love helping future veterans." Trevor Maxwell Reinvents Himself After 20 Years of Service - Part 2 of 2

Jen Amos welcomes her US VetWealth colleague and Creator of Military Money Mistakes, Trevor Maxwell, into a two-part interview. In this final part, Trevor provides details about his program, Military Money Mistakes. He explains that it stems from realizing how much money he potentially wasted earlier in his career by not being smart with finances. He wants to help prevent other veterans from making the same mistakes.

They also discuss the importance of including and educating military spouses. Trevor explains strategies for communicating information to spouses and overcoming skepticism. Jen and Trevor agree it's an ongoing challenge to make information accessible to spouses. Trevor ends by encouraging veterans to ask for help during their transition and to utilize available resources.
