Really there is no giant plan, I would say just be more aware. Honestly I've noticed that nothing is different from before.
I personally am continuing to minimise expenses and rework my savings, serve my last year's in the AF before I separate, up contributions to certain groups and grow my knowledge.
The knowledge growing I would seriously say is needed, far beyond just knowing though, gotta apply what you know to your life.
We can't just get by anymore with the majority of our race being satisfied with some of the aspects of how we live.
