Ever wondered if staying on active duty for 20 years is worth it? It’s a question I get all the time. And like many financial decisions, the answer is: it depends. But if you’re nearing that 20-year mark, there’s another question that needs attention: Should you stay past 20 years? https://lnkd.in/egUnxGEs Here’s the tricky part – if you’re not careful, you could fall into what my friend Doug Nordman from The Military Guide calls the “Just One More Year Syndrome.” This can be a cycle of trying to predict your next promotion or debating whether to accept that upcoming rank or walk away. The stakes? Your quality of life, financial future, and family happiness. The key is to weigh the benefits of staying longer against your personal goals. Are you staying because it’s the right move for your life, or just out of habit or fear of what comes next? What do you think? Have you faced this choice, or are you considering it now?

Dynamic Contentment is achieving happiness and satisfaction at every stage of wealth. If you can be content when you’re poor and continually cultivate contentment as you create more wealth in pursuit of your higher purpose in life, you’ll be much better off.
