How Much Can You Make in the US Navy?

The military is a viable career for anyone looking for an alternative to the likes of college and the usual 9 to 5 grind. That said, how much are you able to earn when enlisting in the United States Navy? Today, we're looking at the pay grades across all ranks in the US Navy.

If you're a solid and dependable worker, then promotions are almost a given. You can also select the officer track by enrolling in a college or entering a Naval ROTC program. Officers will make more as a matter of course when looking at lifetime earnings in the Navy.

Typically, the US Navy does have a basic housing allowance when you aren't on deployment. This is a universal thing carried across all branches of the armed services to help servicemembers afford housing while raising a family.
