Long story short, I've been in the military for 7 years, and am currently being paid quit a large sum of money. Per year, I'm bringing in $31k in base pay (after taxes) and 31k in tax-free pay per year. I also have my rent completely paid for which runs 22k per year.
All in all, The military is paying me $84k per year, after taxes. I also get occasional bonuses for food and hotels, when I need to travel, and free travel, which I won't include.
According to a calculator I found online, to make 84k after-tax I'd have to make 115k per year, which is an insane amount of money that I doubt I'd be able to make, even if I get into cybersecurity which is my plan.
My job is honestly not hard, I get lots of time to travel, and I'm at no risk of death so I could just use this opportunity to its fullest. I just want to make sure there's not something I'm missing about the outside world. The compensation I'm getting now seems too good to be true.
