>Wait, so you're telling me that a 27 year old (though really O-3 would be made by 25) could be making more than double the national average of any given state? Why the fuck WOULDN'T I want to commission?
People bitch about military pay because military people are terrible with money, and they’re insulated for how rough things are for the average Joe.
Even enlisted pay is not that bad. Your average civilian normie is scraping by on $50k a year and paying for their healthcare out of pocket. Military members are just retards who can’t budget.
That being said, pick your rate, pick your fate. An O-3 stuck inside a submarine underwater for months at a time is making (more or less) the same as a finance O-3 who works 6 hours a day and then goes home to their luxury apartment with a pool and jacuzzi.
The real pay disparity in the military is people (largely) only getting paid for their rank and not how hard their job is.
