In this episode I discuss the SBP and life insurance question we all face one we leave the military. I explain that a combination of both worked for me because neither product was an adequate solution. I also explain why insurance sales people attempt to get you to purchase their product (it's to make a commission, they don't care about you). I also discuss the mental fog I dealt with when I left the military and how I dealt with it. I end the show with the customary "ZOT! ZOT! ZOT!" and "ROLL TIDE!!!"
