>>15711676I'll be the same age as you in a month. My advice: Now that borders are open, go teach English in Vietnam and make $3k a month, live on $1000, and pocket the rest. I taught for 2 years in South Korea and 6 years in China during its hey day and saved up enough to buy a house and shop on 26 acres in Montana with cash. One year, I worked pretty much every day of the week and saved 90k USD. If you join the military, they will dictate every bit of your life. Why would you want to wake up to that every day as a 40 year old man? Pretty much half of your life is gone at this point. Choose autonomy. Picrel is my corn coming in.
