I live in a crapy town, with no jobs. Even if I find another job and move to another town I do not have the money to move. I have no insurance. I would like to go back to school and get my bachlors degree but have no money for that either.

Yes. Many people will tell you no. I've spoken with hundreds of veterans and served myself. Some people who served had bad experiences, some good, but I've never met anyone who truly regretted it. The people who regret are the ones who never give the military a shot. Do it for yourself and your future.

That is a very difficult decision to make. Look on line for jobs in other areas. You do not have to stay in your home town. Post your resume on line and see who answers etc. Give it time before you make up your mind on service. Also Pray God will direct you.
