And they're like, ah, don't bother, don't bother.
So I missed that one window.
That's the one regret I have in life was I wished I would have gone into the military because it's really what I wanted to do as a kid anyway.
And so instead, I come back, I get married, and next thing you know, boom, I got five kids.
It wasn't that fast, but I mean, it felt pretty fast.
Oh.
It's a lot.
And then as they get older, there's different sets of challenges that present themselves.
But yeah, so next thing you know, I'm 30 years old, I got five kids, and 9-11 happens.
So now I'm back to looking at going to the military.
and I'm 30, and I'm thinking, how do I make this work financially?
But I couldn't.
But I knew I wanted to do something.
I wanted to do some type of service.
The thought of being a cop never crossed my mind, never.
I'd never grown up thinking I was gonna be a cop.
I was driving by cops, and I was like, those freaking cops.
I was not a police officer guy.
And so 30 years old, I'm looking at the military, and financially, I just couldn't make it work.
It just wasn't.
