About $682 a month
1,965 points ÷ 360 = 5.46 years. 5.46 × 2.5% = 13.65% of an estimated High-3 of $5,001.98. The 24 points in question are worth about $8.40 a month for life.

Retired pay
How is Guard and Reserve retired pay figured?
Divide your retirement points by 360 to get years, multiply by 2.5% (2.0% under BRS), then by your High-3. The result is rounded down to the dollar.

Points
Why are points missing from my statement?
Points post from orders and drill records, so an order that never posted means points that never posted. A year counts toward retirement only with 50 points.

Reduced age
What counts toward reduced retirement age?
Each 90 days of qualifying active duty after January 28, 2008 takes 3 months off age 60, down to age 50. Days can add up within one fiscal year, or two consecutive fiscal years for service after September 30, 2014.
