why is that lol? lol. Here is what I get for free:

1. Health care. Covering everything for me and my family in my cas for the rest of my life and my wifes.
2. Dental for all of us too.
3. Skilz...
4. Travel for a small fee, like $10 for an international flight.
6. Tax free shopping.
7. Education benefits, for me it was a free MBA.
+ some other stuff I can't remember atm.

Then I get paid.

Base Pay
Cost of living allowance = tax free
Housing allowance = tax free
Food allowance = tax free

Then ohhh nooooozzzzzz, if I go to combat my pay is all tax free plus I get about 3 kinds of hazard/combat pay.

Then, I'm about to complete my Army career which set up my job in almost any field and I'll be making at least 2x what I'm making now - which to me is a lot.

Plussss, I went to UGA so there.

Ok, just for fair and balanced here. My wife and I are both Navy brats. For some, the military is a very good fit, for some it isn't at all. But, for all, a career in the military has some extended periods away from home(the severity is branch dependent, the navy, my perspective, being by far the most time away.

While we're guys, and tend to handle it ok, the truth is some families are fine through it and others fall apart completely. lot's of devoirce, infedelity, etc. Their is also alot of moving involved usually, which is hard on kids.

The military can be a good career, but it really isn't an easy one in alot of ways. One of the reasons I have alot of respect for those that stick it out and excell in that environment.

you need to have a break-even stretch of more than 5,000 hands before you're allowed to bitch about it.

complaining about 2k break even stretches is like complaining about 150 break even SNGs.

it's not the stretch....it's the coming to terms with the realization that you suck and the only way you win is by coolering/ppl dumping
