    Crime. I’d do crime. I’m too old to join the Navy, too poor to get some debt. So I’d do the same thing the overwhelming majority of Americans who find themselves in the situation do: Crime.

    Which crime? Well, the likelihood of this actually happening to many people who are currently gainfully employed and financially stable is uncomfortably high, so some cards I just have to keep close, and you should too.

    No war but the class war.

      Air Force and Space Force max enlistment age is 42 now. Not for everyone but they do come with skills that are usually marketable outside, respect from random people, and of course room and board. That is not a short term solution though, it can be be months before they send you to basic training, they are also picky about current health, medical history, ASVAB, etc.
