        Wish I would have. At 52, I’d have been retired for 20 years, pulling retirement since then, and fat on benefits. PLUS, working as a government consultant of some sort if I was skilled and chose to do so.

        And somehow, people think if you join, you have to pick up an M4 and go fight in a desert. Yeah, those jobs are for people who want them, or are too stupid to do anything else.

      USDA direct loan. the rates went up this year but they still give a deferment for financial hardship. I think it’s called a 502 or 503 direct loan.
