Take it from me, i went in with 26 AP credits and I regret busting my balls in HS because the college classes are so much easier. Its like in HS the teachers are attempting to make it the most pain in the ass expirience so it toughens you up. I would rather have just taken them all in College.

USAF Enlisted, I make enough to pay all the basic bills. I have a few savings from my last deployment, and will be deploying again this winter.
Wife is a Registered Nurse, thats my play money. She just switched jobs, and they gave her a $5k sign-on bonus, there is my down-payment

Car will be paid off in 2 years, tops.

Nice! Wish I could have afforded a car like this as a O-1!! Just make sure you study like hell there in UPT and enjoy the hell out of it. My year there was probably the best (and worst) year of my life.
