I got out because of financial reasons.  I loved serving my Corps with all my heart and soul but it was time for me to pursue more economical ventures.  E-7 pay just doesn't allow me to save for retirement the way I wanted.

Are you not a little old for that?
Most people outgrow it in their twenties.

I don't agree with the dope smokin', but that's your choice. Just don't smoke and then drive. ;)

BJJ is just another form of Judo. :-)

Welcome to the forum.

As a career military person, I really have to wonder what your definition of "occasionally" is. It seems reprehensible that a leader would be smokin' dope while on active duty. I know it's happened in the past, but this ain't the 70s. ;) I also find it somewhat odd that a dope smoker would even make it to E-7, at least not since the 80s.

Furthermore...... BJJ is a just a Judo wanna-be sport......... :stirpot:

Hmm...I retire next year with 27 years in.

I won't have to work.

Seems you didn't understand the DOD retirement plan, zippy.

Since I'm still kind of feeling my way around this place, I'll just say welcome to the Cave, have fun, and don't cause any trouble. :-)

Dutch, I retired with 20 years in and I don't have to work, either. If I DID have a job, it would make life a little better as I could afford some of the "luxury" items, like parts to build a new PC, etc. I seem to get by OK on my "measly" retirement.

Looks like he did a pretty good job of it all by himself.  Comes in and makes a whole shitpot full of claims, and then runs at the first hint of questioning.

Hasn't been here in two weeks, and doesn't look like he'll be back either.

I smell troll *****.
