I think it is a good idea in general. What are you thinking of doing in the military?
Not entirely sure. If I was ambitious, maybe Navy special ops.
In general, anything not associated with a typical business/finance role.
Yeah going to BUD/s would be nice. You should also consider USAF:

It's actually pretty challenging to get a spec ops slot as an officer. Do you have a good GPA?
I'd kill myself if I had some asshole yelling at me all day.
It Is generally a great experience and I am happy I did it. However, I was also in need of discipline. You will be challenged regardless of which branch you go into (speak to all of them before you decide). But just be damn sure that it is what you want to do. You will have some of the best times of your life if you do it and the potential for some of the worst. Will pray to help you with your decision.
