How much money will you get after 4 years in the military?

Answer 1

Whatever your position is it varies. It also depends if you receive a enlistment bonus. And if you are deployed, you get more money in a combat zone.

But if making money is your main reason for joining the military, I wouldn't recommend it.

Here is a current pay table:

Answer 2

Depends on your rank at the time of retirement, and how long you've served. It's a very complicated system, and I would suggest you take a look at the link posted in 'related links' to better understand it.
