re: 16yo Son wants to be a medic in army or marines

Tell him to joint the military and do something completely different. Mechanic, HVAC, information security…anything. Get experience and knowledge in a completely different career path.

Then use the military to pay for his schooling to become an EMT/paramedic.

That way when/if he gets burnt out he has something he can fall back on and do something different.

There is such a huge shortage of police/EMS right now they’re just looking for a pulse in some places.

Definitely gonna tell him all of this, he definitely wants to be an EMT/paramedic just trying to figure out the best route for him to get there without being swamped in debt, i really do appreciate yall
