How much money does a Navy SEAL earn?

Answer 1

SEALs receive normal military pay and allowances, plus incentive pay for special skills and assignments. All SEALS receive jump, dive and demo pay, plus special duty assignment pay. It makes SEALS the highest paid enlisted operators in the US Military.

Military salaries are based on rank and time in service. But overall, it is possible that they would qualify for food stamps early in their career.

Answer 2

Like any sailor, they receive pay and allowances based on time in service, rank, job specialty, marital status, and housing status. In addition, they also receive hazardous duty / combat pay.

Bottom line is that it's different for all sailors, not just SEAL's. Everyone's service status is different, and really about the only time you're actually equal in pay is when you're in boot camp.

I will say this; the amount of money they earn isn't near enough for the dedication and extreme training they put in to maintain their high state of readiness. On the flip side though, like all of us who've drawn hazardous duty pay for dangerous Navy jobs, the action, destinations, and cool toys you get to play with tend to make up for the lack of money.

In other words, no one does it for the money, because it just wouldn't be worth it. The job allows you to do things that very few people on the planet can say they've been able to do, and that's worth a lot more than money itself.

At least until bill time rolls around...

They get paid by rank, starting pay 45,000$ a year, not 60,000$. Friends that are seals. 175$ a month for diving, 200$ a month other special skills. Then it also depends if they live on base or off, meal plans, clothing allowance
