    Not to mention clothing, housing, food are all taken care of too. Not to mention perks of military base discounts and programs.

      Plus, you abandon all bodily autonomy and you might be wounded or killed.

        And even if you’re not, the chances of PTSD are astronomical! Not to mention the likelihood of having to do something morally reprehensible.

          hope you enjoyed music in your youth because the vast majority will come home with degrees of hearing loss, most of which the mil will assert happened away from service.

        you might be wounded or killed.

        This is not unique to the military, a lot of jobs are dangerous.

          Sure. I work from home, so my risk is slightly lower, though.

              I’d say that depends on how many calls you’re on every day

                  I am so glad the pandemic hit when my kids were preteens. I can’t imagine what trying to get eight year olds to sit on a zoom call while you also sit on a zoom call would be like.

          I have stubbed my toe on the way to my kitchen a time or two. Dangerous times to work from home, and watch our for Legos folks!

      But that barely makes a difference, assuming you stay loyal to tradition and purchase a brand new Charger with 33% apy.
