Hey Everyone,
Every once in a while I'll come across forum members who is / used to be in the Military.
For those who used to be in the Armed Forces (Air Force, Marines, Army, Navy, whatever)...
Why Did You Leave?
(And if you're still in, why?)
Reason asking is I have an older brother in the Air Force who I once tried to explain fastlane thinking to.
Although I don't waste effort trying to convince people anymore, I was genuinely perplexed.
This is what he told me:
"I get full benefits. I make X amount and I'll retire when I'm 40."
"I'll retire when I'm 40."
Now, I'm not buying it. Sure, retire when you're 40. But you're violating control.
You're at the mercy of the government to give you a job in the first place.
Not just your job, but your life.
From an outsider's perspective, this is what I see:
The Government Owns your House.
The Government Owns your Job.
The Government Owns your Decisions.
The Government Owns YOU.
What do you think?
I'm genuinely curious.
