>100%. Especially anyone who goes career. The inflated ego of some career E-5+ is hilarious to witness
People bitch about military pay a lot, but the military is the least competitive way to make six figures in the nation. An E-6 (depending on they’re BAH rate) makes the equivalent of like $80k a year, which might as well be six figures when you consider they don’t pay for healthcare/life insurance/etc (huge expenses for normies).

Literally all you have to do is exist and not commit crimes, and you’ll make E-6 eventually probably. So you have all these retards who never went to college, enlisted straight out of highschool, and got autopiloted to a middle class existence despite never doing anything impressive or difficult they’re entire lives (not to mention they don’t work very hard), and their ego inflates 10-fold as they constantly brag about how they “earned” it (by not getting a DUI, failing a PT test, or raping anyone).
They’d be a fucking nobody in the civilian world, but the military keeps these retards breathing and comfortable, so they think they’re dick is 14in long

Then they bitch about pay because they can’t manage money even though they make like 1.5x the median US salary.
>Hurr duh military don’t pay me enough for my leased Tacoma and the house I bought that’s way out of my budget.
