do this. jobs in demand. you make pretty good money pretty quickly.



I am curious about this. I had heard that the AA degree in nursing is not as valuable and is being phased out and that employers really favor the BSN. Comments?


It is being phased out, but they will be grandfathered in. The RN part is what matters, not the AA/BS in Nursing. They've been "phasing out" the AA for at least 20 years and it still hasn't happened. So many jobs.

My sister makes 90k a year as an RN. She works a 12 hour shift so she only works 3 days a week and is able to not have to pay childcare because of it.

I'd visit the career councilor at your local community college. They should be able to help.

Look at certification programs and how much starting pay generally is for that area.

Look I'm older and I need a degree to get a job. Being a homemaker in a really bad relationship for years prevented me from this. I don't have time to figure out what I love to do. I need to put dinner on the table and keep a roof on our heads without the help of anyone. I'm doing everything I can now but waitressing and cleaning homes isn't going to help my kids it my self in our future.

If you hate the work your strategy is myopic.
What work do you love?
