Avoiding the military

No idea. Alls I know is, make sure not to move out of the country until after the World Cup. Wish I could go to that man....going be sick.
 
"You're from Brasil? Only steers and queers come from Brasil private SombodyLolz, and you don't much look like a steer to me, so that's kinda narrows it down."

Anyways, I was in the army. When you're there you're bored 99% of the time and you think how you're wasting your time. Once you're out you feel like you accomplished something. Go to army man if you can't evade. Stories from the army are unforgettable...I could tell you a few, but this forum is about SEO
 
People here skip the army mainly in 2 ways:

a) They pretend to be crazy. They pass some "exams" 3 times and voila, you are now exempt.
b) They get in and pretend they are gay. They get summarily given a "come back later" dismissal and they are miraculously never get called back (this happens somewhat unofficially).

Try finding similar loopholes in your country. There must be local forums dedicated to that.
I have several relatives in the United States who have done this. My uncle and his wife, for example, threatened to KILL EVERYONE ALIVE. They never stated exactly how they were going to accomplish this amazing feat, but they managed to get discharged from the military because they were "mentally unfit to serve" and now live in a 2 story house that they bought with their monthly military allowance and play video games/cheat on each other all day.
 
So, I'm about to turn 18 this year, and here in Brazil you still get drafted if the base general thinks that "your country needs you".

There's a 1k fine if I'm selected and don't want to serve (for a whole year @ < minimum wage pay) and I can't afford it, I don't have the money and that would give me a criminal record, which would be terrible because I'm planning to move out of the country this year and that would make it 200% harder to get an passport.


And this just leaves me one option, look up and say:

Now what?


Dude....Brazil has no natural enemies. The odds of it turning out badly for you are slim to none. You should join....it will open up tons of doors for you. My wife is from Porto Alegre.
 
You dont know how lucky you're to serve only 1 year in the military. I had to serve 3 in a war zone (part-time), for example.

And.. couldnt agree more with @SkyrocketSEO, 'doing nothing' is the normal state of any soldier. It makes you lazy, it makes you insecure when you get out of the military. Its a wasted time, and combat fatigue. The stories you get to keep is the only positive moment I could attribute to my military experience.
 
This thread is full of cowards, but don't worry - we got your back.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill
 
Even though you have no desire to join for personal reasons, doing the right thing is probably in your best interest. If you do something dishonest now, you could end up regretting it or paying for it for the rest of your life. Its just one year man. As previously stated, Brazil has no enemies for the most part and has been conflict free for DECADES. Make the best of it. Join, learn some new shit, maybe get a little bit of discipline.... a year will fly by and you'll come out of it with some extra skill sets that may very well help you out with business in the long run. Not to mention, you could make great connections while serving.

Best of luck to ya, man.

I 'm pretty happy to have others die for me, thank you very much. Nevertheless, that 's not the point.

I have no problem with people voluntarily becoming hired guns. What i strongly oppose though is the draft, because it directly implies that the individual is owned by the state. Doesn't get much simpler than that and it 's irrelevant to anyone 's macho-ness.

I am also puzzled by the use of JSM 's words as a pro-draft argument when the man was a clear advocate of individual liberty and anti-slavery.
 
I don't know how you guys imagine the brazilian military, but it's nothing like you think it is, it's a falling appart institution with barely enough resources to keep the ball rolling.
I'll be lucky if I learn how to swim in that crap.

To be honest, I really have a desire to help my country, but wasting a year of my good and jovial years (the peak of my mental capabilities) won't help my country in any way, shape or form.

What doors?, the only military friend that I have says it his biggest regret.

Your wife didn't had to go thru the shit I'm going right now.
 
tell them you have asthma, add, adhd, ocd or something like that.

John Stuart Mill wrote this in the 1800's, A point when most war was actually for freedom, defense, and safety of those around you.

It is completley silly and ridiculous to try to connect that quote to today's state of the military.
 
move out before they select you.
or
break your arm bone.

Sorry i cant think of trick that can get you of that, pitty you are trapped .


Personally i hope my country have same rule, we have bunch of lazy young men around:)
 
Serve your Country. The military is one of the best exposure in your life whereby you learn to be disciplined and determine.

So, I'm about to turn 18 this year, and here in Brazil you still get drafted if the base general thinks that "your country needs you".

Just man up and do it. I served for 7 years and deployed to 2 different combat zones. I didnt get killed a single time. I've generated a few million dollars doing fulltime IM (before it was even called IM) in the 17 years since serving. There is life after military service.

You say you left elementary school to do business, and it's working well. But you dont have $1000 to spend to keep from serving. So ask yourself, how well is your business really doing?

You say you just dont want to do it. But you dont want to be criminal or leave your country or not be allowed back in. We call this, being immature. Serve your country, or pay $1000, or GTFO and stay out.

And welcome to adulthood, kid. You're going to be doing a lot of things in your life even if you 'dont want to'.

There 's a difference between going to the army as a job and getting dragged there to "serve".

There are men who build their future and men who follow the winds. Adulthood doesn't mean being a sheep.
