&gt; Or join the military, every country needs a strong military.<p>It&#x27;s funny how looked down upon this is. If I said, hey come work for me for 4 years. During that time you will get paid, get lodging and likely do some traveling. Oh, and you&#x27;ll learn some skills. If you want to go to college up front and be an MD for example, I&#x27;ll go ahead and pay for that and you can work for me for 6 years after gaining valuable experience. If you don&#x27;t go to college up front, then when you leave my job (you don&#x27;t have to) I&#x27;ll give you money for college.<p>Now, inevitably someone will say they don&#x27;t want to be sent to a war zone. The % of the military that actually end up in a war zone is very small.
