(Washington, DC) Members of the armed forces, their spouses and veterans are no exception when it comes to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and financial well-being. According to the National Foundation for Credit Counseling® (NFCC®) 2020 Military Financial Readiness survey, sponsored by Wells Fargo and conducted by Harris Poll, it is clear, among military households that their professional training left them better prepared for crisis management during the past year. With a continued reliance on an uncertain gig economy and a trend toward increased reliance on borrowing, military and veteran populations see a distinct mix of challenges and opportunities when it comes to personal finances.
