If you want to do something chemistry-related, you'll be stuck as a lab tech. If you want to write and publish papers, you need at least a PhD. Most STEM grads don't actually end up in their chosen field. My aunt was a Zoology major and she ended up working as an investment banker.

The V22 has a lot of bad press due to the internet age but if you look at the numbers it has the best safety record in Naval Aviation.

The 60 has an airframe that is always tearing itself apart (from what I hear, we dont have them in the corps)

Haha. You're gonna blow it all if you touch it. Take 150k of the cash and add it to the mutual fund. Use the other 100k to supplement your income by 10k per year for the next ten years. That way you can work part time at a grocery store to make another 10-15k a year, live on that 20-25k. You'll have between a 20% and 50% discount on food/groceries. In the next ten years your mutual fund will get fucking huge and you basically live like you're retired already since you only work part time. The work will keep you active and give you access to friends, but you'll also have a shit ton of free time to pursue your passions. Paint or play an instrument or have lots of sex or read a bunch or watch everything on netflix or go back to school or travel.

17, so still a student.
I work weekends at a local fishery. (I live in a norwegian coast-town, you either work with oil or fish.) I make about 40 dollars per hour, which is pretty damn good for a weekend-job.
