JD: The guys have given you great advice - you have the benefit of learning from their experiences which is as good as it gets. To add to their wisdom, several thoughts come to mind. Nowhere do you mention the possibility of a scholarship - there are plenty for the taking. I also know there are countless private foundations where funds just sit awaiting useful purposes. You can get listings at your local library. The military is definitely an option - they train well and then you qualify for the GI Bill after your service.
