Hey, I know alot of you dont really know me that well but I need some advice.
I am considering joining the military, but im unsure what to do.
I am afraid as much as I am excited about the idea, it could mean turning my whole life around.
At this point in time theres not many choices for me, I make barelly enough money to pay my bills each month and theres no demand for what im good at around here.
Please give me advice, I truely dont know what to do.

dude, i think i went through the exact same thing you're going through right now...

i did it and haven't regretted a thing about it, it's hard at times but it makes you a better person, physically and mentally. if i might say one word of caution, make sure you can live w/o the people you're close to...when you're in the service there's not a whole lot of room for them

Go for it man. The military is a great option. Everybody should have respect for people in the Armed Forces. Plus when you get out you'll have a lot of great training that'll make it easier to find a good job.

I would like to ask you some questions but have to pick-up my son......I am prior service (14 years).

Email me if you like, but until you look at all options it is too serious to give you a fly by way answer....

Good Luck on whatever you decide......indifferent

Enlisting in the military is a huge committment. Ask yourself if you are willing to dedicate several years of your life to it. Do you truly believe in the country you live in? Do you have the mind set to be able to handle things you are going to see and things you are going to have to do? Are you going to be able to handle high stress? Are you willing to be deployeed into conflict?

Either way its a personal choice, and I would suggest that you do a lot of soul searching. I personally would support you in either decision that you make.

Best of luck!
