My name is Erik Siruchek, an Accredited Financial Counselor® and Marine Corps veteran.
After dedicating over a decade to military service, I felt the need for a new chapter in my life. During my military career, I devoted years to guiding young service members in financial management and optimizing their income. Transitioning to a role with a credit union, I helped individuals in securing loans when beneficial, and extended this commitment as a Financial Counselor for underserved communities. Presently, my focus is on empowering military veterans who have also made the transition and have started a new career by maximizing their earnings and helping them understand the veteran benefits available to them.
I think that if we understand the basic ideas about money, most of us don't really need someone to tell us how to invest. With a little help, we can figure out how to handle our money on our own. Nowadays, because of technology and the internet, we can easily find safe places to put our money without falling for tricks.
I've decided to help make the world of money less confusing and explain things in a way that's easier to understand.
Clarity. Confidence. Empowerment.
At Mission Ready Money, my mission is simple: to empower veterans who are professionals or career changers to navigate their financial journeys with clarity and confidence.
I'm committed to:
Simplifying financial concepts and breaking down barriers to financial literacy.
Helping you make the most of your income and benefits, so you can achieve your goals.
Offering practical strategies for managing money independently, without relying on complicated or high-cost financial products.
Whether you’re tackling debt, planning a career transition, or building a strategy for long-term wealth, I'm here to provide the tools and support you need to succeed.
