I’m married, so I wouldn’t leave my wife to go do it and definitely would NOT take her with me. If I were single, I would do it in a heartbeat- depending on other aspects of the deal (are you expenses (food, shelter, ect) covered while there? what happens if you get sick over there? ect)). If you literally banked $100K in one year over there and came home with it, you could invest that money and make a real, REAL nice turnover in 10-15 years. ---

wouldn’t ask for more. and keep in mind, kbr are non-combatives. so you do NOT get to carry a weapon. and they get to get shot at too. if you are single and want to make a quick buck, i guess… but there’s no career there, unless you want to be 40 and in a war zone. ---
