[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually retired military officers already have one or more Master's Degrees. Doesn't he have them? What are additional MAs going to do for him?

I wouldn't advise anyone over 50 to get an MA. Chance of payoff is low. Unless your job is paying for it, or something.

He'd be much better off putting his time and energy into writing a book. Or getting a better job.

If he insists on doing an MA, try to find a cheap online program... [/quote]

They could be enlisted but if they can live off of part of the income I'd assume Officer too as no way we can live of my husband's retirement.  It could be a car note or food but that's about it.  There is more going on if you were stable/retired to that history.  I'm assuming he didn't plan for retirement and doesn't have a degree in a career field that is useful.  My retired husband has had no issue keeping or getting jobs.  He started his masters and dropped out as no point depending on the job.  Now that he is out a few years, he will have trouble getting a job.  He should contact some of the career services at the local base.  Some, like Ft. Mead are offering free training for IT that can lead to a job.[/quote]
