Can a 0331 (Machine Gunner) support himself and his wife on an enlisted paycheck from the Marines? What about when you throw in a kid?

This would only be for 8 years maximum before the wife got out of college(Orthodontist; good money). Heres the breakdown on pay...

Base Pay- $1630.80

BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing)- Around $900.00 (Up around $1500 in expensive places; Hawaii, Alaska, ect..)

BAS (Basic Allowance for Substance)- $235.00
--------
They have other benefits but those are the main cash ones. Now supported just him and his wife; what kind of house, car, ect.. would he be able to afford? What about when its him, her, and a kid?

Thanks alot. The more specific,detailed the answer; the better.

when there should be hundreds of thousands of US troops rooting out the real culprit on the Afghan/Pakistan border. It makes no sense to me whatsoever.

For instance Bush Sr. and Jr. and Kerry both being memebers of the super secret Skull and Bones society. How many presidents and people of power were Freemasons. The Bilderberg meetings, which includes different highly powerful people at different times. Do they know the truth about extra terrestrials, and secret underground bases like area 51, and Dulce New Mexico? What is this whole New World Order thing, and is it happening right before our eyes? ...discuss..

Seriously. They always criticize the candidate's looks, or something equally stupid. What does that have to do with making a viable candidate for office?

First, they said they was going to leave after the 2000 Presidential election. Then they said they was going to leave if Kerry didn't get elected. As far as I can see, they're still here. When are they going to make good on their promises and leave America?

then why the hell do any of you want the government in charge of health care?

Personally, I would go with the traditional American train of thought here.... it you want something, get off your *** and earn it. But regardless of your views on seeing everyone with health coverage, why do you want a "corrupt" (your word, not mine) government in charge?

The National Anthem is played at a lot of different public functions. I always stop what I'm doing, stand up (if i'm sitting:)), place my hand over my heart and face the flag or wherever the music is coming from. It's what my parents told me was appropriate when I was growing up. And I'd have to say I agree. Yeah, people may not be happy with polititians or what the government is doing, but where are American's sense of pride? I look around and a lot of people keep there seats, or worse, talk through the whole thing. We've had many generations go before us for the very freedom to do that. Ok, National anthem is being played . . . . . what do you do, and why? ( I know some people are going to go country bashing with this.)

War is a futile effort to resolve problems. War or other violent acts only lead to more violence, despite the effort to solve the initial conflict(s). War is evidence of human kind's savage and brutal instinct.

My husband is in Iraq and left behind a bunch of those grey t-shirts that he wore for PT. Considering they are a part of uniform, can I wear them to work-out, go running, etc? I don't want to wear them if I shouldn't be. Dumb question, I know but thanks for answering!
