if yoi read it again it shows I was an officer, not enlisted so my pay was better than that (albeit kinda unfair) I was paid 38k starting and my 2 deployments were 55k+ a year. Got out as O-3.
I studied and got my ba/ma in economics and closely followed investments with my friends. We put a great deal in some stocks when it was .05 (average) a share and sold it for 1.85 share, netting us all a hefty sum. I also flipped a couple houses.
My undergrad was a full scholarship, hence the service. I was recently medically discharged after my knee was destroyed and I underwent 3 surgeries and had started walking only recently. I get a lot in disability as well.
Also Yale is a full scholarship that I earned with my 3.9 undergrad and 178 LSAT
If you want to insult my integrity then it's fine. It's one of the 7 Army values to have integrity, and i have no silver spoon. I worked hard, invested intelligently and got very lucky on a few of them.
