Is 35 too old to enlist?
I am 35 and I have followed the guide to "being normal" to a T. I have had a long successful career in finance, I've been married (24 to 33), raised children (stepkids) and divorced a little over year ago. Now, my life is empty, all of my direct family members (mom dad brothers aunts uncles and cousins) have all moved out of state and I have nothing holding me here. I have two very close friends who are married and just now have/ are having children, so i see them less and less. I dont drink, I dont smoke, and I dont really get invited to much of anything as a result. I rent, have no pets, and work fully remote.
The idea of enlisting at 35 seems wild to me, but I cant shake that it would be more fulfilling that \*gestures broadly\* this.
Am I insane? Am I creating a fantasy in my head?
Not sure if its important for this post, but I am 6'1, 155lbs, workout regularly and run a 5k in 22 mins flat, so I feel like I could meet the minimum requirements maybe?
