No. Only people with money, connections, or a military background have a chance of doing something they want. And if all you have is military, your ambitions better be small to achieve any if it.
Anything you try to do by yourself, a somehow well funded group will do bigger and faster. Any dream job you want will be given to someone less qualified. Nobody is going to wrie a bioptic about you.
