Re: What is ur average 2 week take home pay?

Take-home pay, also known as 'net pay', depends on several factors. Some employees contribute to 401(k) and 403(b) retirement plans, whereas other employees do not. Some people automatically deduct a portion of their paychecks to stock purchase plans and profit-sharing, whereas other people do not. Many people have expensive health insurance premiums deducted from their paychecks, while others work for facilities that do not even offer health insurance.

I am a new LVN in Fort Worth, Texas with five months of experience. In the five months that I have been employed this year, I have grossed $23,000, which approximately adds up to $4,600 monthly in gross earnings. I do not take $4,600 home each month due to health insurance premiums, disability insurance deductions, dental plan, liability insurance, and other deductions. Keep in mind that I am an LVN.

I believe WhimsieRN was attempting to indicate that the original poster was displaying multiple grammatical errors.

Even though bad grammar is annoying, we shouldn't judge the poster based on grammatical errors.

I don't understand the reluctance of so many members of this forum to post the amount of money they make. I think it is something that is very important to the members who are not yet nurses. I hear so many variations on what a new nurse can make, it's confusing. I think we are just trying to be smart, and go where we can get the most out of all this schooling we are going through.

2. How many hours u work per week? I haven't counted the hours, but some days I am running all day and others I have hardly anything to do, so it evens out. I'd say, 40 hrs. weekly.

3. How many years of nursing? Been an LPN almost 6 yrs., RN about 3 months

4. What Shift: Day, Evening, nights, or weekend only? I work during business hours, but every other week I take "call" which means I must be available to come out to a patient's home if there is a problem. This almost never happens (knock on wood).

5. City and State Nashville, TN area

6. Average 2 week gross pay $1900-2100

Thanks
