I have two options. Either go to the middle east as a contractor for a year and make a quick 1 hundred thousand dollars, or go to to university in texas for three years. What the hell should I do?

My own personal recommendation (and I am RETIRED Military by the way) is to recommend that you go to COLLEGE as soon as you get your discharge ... and OBTAIN that Degree.
That way, with a bit of sacrifice up front, you can then be able to EARN through the Degree that you have the High Salary all the time for the Rest of your LIFE -- and that is the MOST important thing (especially if in the future you have a family or have one now).

Once you have all that money in your pocket it'll be hard to give it up and you may never get back to college. Go to Texas and get your degree. The sooner you finish your education the closer you'll be to making a hundred thousand regularly each and every year.

simple solution. The University of Texas will be there in another year's time. The opportunity to make 100k will not. I'd go for the bucks, and have a much better time at UT when I got back. You'll have less financial stress, will be able to concentrate of your studies bnetter -- and thus have a better chance of making good grades and a brighter future. Go for it.

An education will help you out in the long run. But that is a lot of money to make in a year. This is a decision you will have to make for yourself.
