That way you have a nice cushion to work with in case things go to crap somewhere in the middle there.

(I am not nor have I ever been in the military, so maybe my opinion won't count, but that's the way I'd do things, if I were looking at your situation.)
No, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I have been paid 2x a month like clockwork for the last 16 years. I see what you're saying, but, financially, I have very few worrries after retirement.

Congrats on the new addition by the way!
