@Camp4 I agree with you. Too many people think you should "hustle" and get "wealthy" before settling down. In reality the right partner will accelerate wealth creation far more than doing it alone.

@Eli_Albrecht Had a Marine take a bad shot on a farmer without a weapon. That village terrorized us for months and directly/indirectly killed and hurt Marines a short time later. The stakes are enormous when you pull the trigger and I can understand a modicum of hesitation.

He can disagree with his politics, but to imply another Marine isn’t a REAL Marine is exceedingly disappointing.
