What Would You Do With $1,095 Hours and $2,131?

What does Jason do with 1,095 Hours and $2,131? When Jason joined the Marines right out of high school, he was up to smoking 1 pack per day. The toughest part of boot camp was that he had to quit smoking for 13 weeks, but he did it. The night he graduated, he grabbed a drink with his buddies and bummed a cigarette. By the time he reported to School of Infantry, he noticed many of his unit leaders dipped throughout the day. Pretty soon, his whole day revolved around his tobacco use. This is a day in the life of Jason.
