[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is a bit random as I know your thread died a while ago but you popped into my head...I'm a physician in a local hospital system and I was watching all the ancillary staff the other day...techs, nurses, device reps, ultrasound techs. Many of them are men, salaried, and were able to secure their job through a not-too-long (a few years maybe?) training program. These folks have a pretty good lifestyle and make a decent salary; this is a good longer term option for someone looking to get on a career path.

Of course, you'd need to figure out how to work and bring in some income while you studied, but it's just a thought; the medtronic rep who came in to interrogate one of my patient's pacemakers was an incredibly smart guy who really knew his stuff. I asked him how much debt he had from his training program: zero. (I have 6 figures of debt, fyi). Just a thought.

Obvs this doesn't solve the short term issues; I do hope things work out for you and DW at home.[/quote]
