I retired from the military at age 49. I am working now until my 11th grader is out of High School and then I'm done. I'll be 52.
I know the military isn't for everyone but you can't really beat the retirement and benefits.

100% agreed. My pops retired after 20 years in the military then worked another 14 years and secured a second retirement.
The military benefits are absolutely solid.

If I could go back and do it again, I would join the military in an instant. I would go Air Force or Navy, leasning towards Air Force. I would encourage any kid in High School to at least talk to the recruiters, don't just push it to the side like I did because I wanted the college lifestyle. Thinking that I would only have to work for a few more years' and then would have the retirement, which would allow me to do "consulting" work as well would be such a great feeling. All that in addition to being able to travel the world on the taxpayer. Man, I wish I had a 2nd chance!

What is so good about the retirement and benefits, don't cops, firemen and teachers get the same?
