Every last penny. Not only that, they've got a benefit that lets me get a college degree even on top of my training, worth up to $80,000. On top of that, if they send my to college after training, I'll get paid as well, and my pay will be about $2,000 per month. (I joined two ranks above most people who enter, and have $1767 a month atm.)
My re-enlistment bonus just for staying for two years will also be anywhere from $90,000 to $100,000. Yeah, the Navy throws a LOT of money to people they want to keep.
Either that, or I can go and try to become an officer, and in the Nuclear field, the pickup rate is very high, especially when compared to the rest of the Navy.
