Same age, made $4.5 million in an IPO. Decided to join the military. It was worth it, would recommend with several key caveats. Remember, most FAANGs pay you your tech salary while you’re training. A lot easier to get smoked by a Drill SGT when you know you’re making 10x their salary while doing those push ups :)

American companies pay you to join the military?

Some pay the difference between your company salary and your military or reserve military salary.

What military job/mos did you pick? Sounds like you went reserve?
