[quote=Anonymous]There's a big difference with going ROTC or an academy as an 18 year old, or choosing to enlist without the degree. It really isn't comparable. A 2nd Lieutenant is making almost six figures, and will definitely go beyond that as a 1st and eventually Captain. They do their four years if it's Army, and that leads to nice advantages for grad or law school and a lot of companies as they move on. The credit card and airline benefits for young officers are ridiculous. All those clean cut young people sitting in the lounge and flying business when you travel? Yeah, that's ROTC and academies. Obviously it comes with a cost. Too long to get into. And four years is a very long time to not be in control. But ROTC/ the academies/ OCS comes with significant benefits for most people. But that is a very different experience than just rolling out of high school and enlisting. [/quote]
