In the past, people were not very enthusiastic about joining the army or participating in conscription, because serving in the army meant being out of touch with society for two years.

Two years is neither long nor short, but it can change a lot of things.

But now, with the progress of society and the improvement of military welfare benefits, more and more people are willing to join the army and serve. Even if they cannot stay in the army in the end, they can still receive a generous retirement pay after retirement.

How much retirement pay can a retired soldier get? Why does it attract so many people to join the army?

The status of soldiers

There are several professions in China that enjoy a high status in society. One of them is soldiers. Soldiers can defend the country and give people peace of mind.

No matter what disaster or war we encounter, soldiers are always on the front line.

In addition to the lofty status of soldiers, in the minds of the older generation, soldiers are public servants who eat the country's food. People who work for the country will definitely not suffer any loss. It is a rare and good job.

With a good job, it won't be difficult to get married or send your children to school in the future.

Therefore, joining the army is a path that many parents hope their children will choose in the future.

But expectation is one thing and reality is another.

In the past, soldiers had poor living conditions and hard training. Many people could not stand such hardship, so few people chose to join the army on their own initiative. They would rather experience the beatings of society than the hardship of military training.

Furthermore, once you join the army, you have to obey orders in everything, let alone looking at your phone or playing games.

Therefore, anyone who can join the army has strong self-control and endurance.

But with the progress of the times and the improvement of living standards, the working environment of soldiers has become better and better, especially in terms of welfare benefits. It can prevent a veteran from starving due to being out of touch with society even after retirement, and he can even live a very comfortable life.

Because of the generous retirement benefits, many people hope that their children can join the army and serve in the military.

If you adapt well to the army and perform well, there is still hope of staying in the army.

If you are really not cut out for being a soldier, even after you are discharged, you will receive a large sum of severance pay, so you don't need to worry too much about what you want to do next.

It has to be said that joining the army is an option that can be used for both offense and defense.

Therefore, many parents would use their connections and ask others for help so that their children can join the army smoothly.

Everyone talks about the severance pay in exaggerated terms, as if after retiring and getting the severance pay, they can sit back and relax. So how much is the maximum severance pay a soldier can get after retiring?

Retirement after two years of compulsory military service

The exact amount of retirement pay you receive depends on the length of time you served in the army.

The shortest military service time is for conscripts who serve for two years. This type of soldier usually responds to the call of the country and serves in the army voluntarily. After two years of service, they have no desire to stay in the army and do not have good qualifications. Generally, such personnel will retire and return home after two years of service.

These retired soldiers can get around 67,800 yuan.

The army will pay a one-time retirement payment of 9,000 yuan, and the total insurance fund will be 56,800 yuan, including 21,800 yuan in occupational annuity, 35,000 yuan in basic pension insurance, and 2,000 yuan in demobilization allowance.

In addition, they will receive a monthly allowance of 1,200 yuan, food expenses of 1,340 yuan, medical insurance of 840 yuan, and travel expenses of about 1,000 yuan. The amount will vary slightly depending on how far away one lives.

It can be said that by serving for two years, you can not only satisfy your military addiction, but also receive nearly 70,000 yuan in retirement pay after retirement, which can be said to be a rare experience in your life.

After serving in the army for two years, you can get nearly 70,000 yuan. So how much money can you get after serving for five years and retiring?

How much money can you get after retiring in five years?

Soldiers who have served for five years are generally those who have performed relatively well during their service, are deeply liked by their squad leaders, and are also soldiers that the army intends to train.

However, after serving for five years, some of these soldiers reach marriageable age and want to retire and return home, or they want to change their lifestyle, so they choose to retire after five years.

A soldier can receive approximately 356,212 yuan in retirement pay after five years of service.

The demobilization fee is 58,500 yuan, including demobilization fee, resettlement allowance, and return home production allowance.

Housing funds are 120,472 yuan, including housing subsidies and provident fund.

If the veteran is from rural areas, his housing allowance may be higher than that of veterans who settle in cities. This varies slightly according to local policies, but the difference will not be very large.

The insurance fund is 154,740 yuan, including 57,469 yuan for occupational annuity and 97,271 yuan for basic pension insurance.

The army’s one-time retirement payment is 22,500 yuan.

The bonus salary is 7,425 yuan, the medical insurance is 1,947 yuan, and the travel expenses for leaving the team is 3,005 yuan.

When he returned home after five years in the army, he was in the prime of his life. He could still adapt to society well. Moreover, in terms of age, he was more mature and could make any decision calmly and wisely.

How much money can a soldier get after retiring after eight years in the army?

How many decades can a person have?

During the eight years of military service, one can say that one's best years are spent in the army, but the country also gives generous rewards.

The retirement pay for eight years of service is 490,821 yuan.

If a person has no diploma and no skills, you may not even be able to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars.

But it’s different in the army. In just eight years, you can get a salary of nearly 500,000 yuan.

The demobilization fee is 84,526 yuan, the housing fund is 140,706 yuan, the insurance fund is 229,589 yuan, the one-time retirement pay from the army is 36,000 yuan, the bonus salary is 7,290 yuan, the medical insurance is 3,425 yuan, and the travel expenses for leaving the team is 2,235 yuan.

Of course, these fees are only an approximate amount. The specific amount paid out will also vary depending on the military base, military branch and rank, which will affect the final amount of retirement pay. Therefore, they are only for your reference.

No matter how much money it is, after retiring, veterans will have a large amount of funds. So what should they do with so much money?

Three things not to do

I don’t know if you have noticed that if a person has served in the army for a few years, almost no one, whether relatives or friends, will care about him. But when everyone knows that you have been discharged from the army, everyone starts to stick to you, regardless of whether they are familiar with you or not.

At this time, you must be vigilant, because they are not coming for you, but for your severance pay.

They all wanted to borrow money based on old friendship or the favor of relatives.

At this time, you must protect your purse and not lend out all your money just for the sake of face.

Because you have just returned from the army, you don't have a job and you don't know how dangerous the society is, you should keep enough cash with you. Moreover, you are still a vagrant and need money even more, so you can't lend money to others casually.

Furthermore, there are variables as to when the loan can be returned, and there are also social conventions involved as to who to lend to and who not to lend to.

Second, don’t waste it at will.

People who return home after retiring from the army may have a mentality that they don't have a job but have enough money to spend as they please. In addition, they have been in the army for too long and have been stuck there for too long, unable to let go and have fun, so they spend money as they please after retiring from the army.

You have to know that you still have to adapt to society and you haven't got a job yet. Once your money is gone, you won't have any financial reserves for whatever job you want to do later.

You started later than others, and if you start all over again, you will be even slower than others. At your age, you still have to experience the fickleness of human nature.

Third, don’t invest casually

If a friend asks you to invest, you must be cautious. This is actually more deceptive than borrowing money directly. After all, veterans have no knowledge of various businesses and rely entirely on introductions from others. They don't know anything. It is not reliable to invest directly to become a boss or to form a partnership with acquaintances.

For the sake of financial security and friendship, take this step with caution.
