Hey. I've got two choices in front of me; since the beginning of the year, I've been planning on going to community college for graphic design, however this would only land me an associates degree, and the college itself is a 30 mile trip away from where I live. On top of that, I don't have a car, and while I have some funds available to get one with some assistance ($700) I'm worried that it'll end up breaking down while I'm going to school, and the whole thing won't even be worth it.
Alternatively, I could sign my life away to the Army. It's been looking like a good option; I currently have no friends that aren't my family, I've pretty much eliminated my entire sexual orientation, so I'm not chasing after any women, I don't want to have kids or get married. I don't really care about dying, however I'm not one to have a quitter attitude. My motivations behind this potential decision are: 1 - the benefits you can get after being in the military, so I can actually do 4 years of school for significantly cheaper at a legitimate university - 2 - actually learning true discipline so I'm not just sitting around playing vidya all the time - 3 - having a greater appreciation towards life from being in a miserable situation for a few years.
I eventually want to have a career in art/graphic design, but in my 30s or 40s, like Bob Ross. tl;dr - is going into the military the right choice for me or should I risk going to school for a shitty degree right away?
