[quote=Anonymous]OP I dont know why the nursing is your main option right now. Incomes arent THAT much better for nurses. You work 4 days per week 11 hours with Fridays off. I assume that 7-6 covers an hour spread of pickup/dropoff/etc so you really are only working 10 hours so you are working 4 10s You make 110k WAH. Most people want 30-40% increase minimum to take on the in-person commitment and nursing is laborious. It isnt sitting at a desk, the shifts are long, there are no breaks, and there is shift differential, but night shift slowly kills most people. So unless you can make 150-170 per year working same or less hours than its moot. You also need to build in retirement and health insurance costs since your husband is not providing those (I assume). Youre drowning and looking for something else besides the obvious. Tread water, float, and use what you have to survive. Stop adding stuff. [/quote]
