Somehow I don't think my wife is going to be onboard with this plan
The free AK is a given, although I don't think they'll let you pick your favorite - it's usually just what's on top of the pile when your place in line gets to the pile. Snazzy uniform with chest confetti is also probably a given - they might even let you wear a feather plume in your hat!
Swooning fair maidens is a given too - chicks dig uniforms!
But the paycheck... "volunteer" usually means no paycheck, or if one is forthcoming, it's usually pretty tiny. You're lucky if you get fed, although I've seen pictures of a lot of eating going on amongst Ukrainian fighters, so you might be in luck there.
But Ukrainian chicks are hot, so there is that to consider. They're hot until the day the turn 35. On that day, they suddenly get all dumpy and wrinkly, and appear to be around 80.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
