Security clearances are serious business in the military—most service members need one to perform their job. And if you can’t get one or keep one, you could lose your job in the military. In that case, it means a reclass or, in some cases, being put out of the military. Personal finances are one of the guidelines in the adjudication process to obtain a clearance.
