Re: Whats the biggest paycheck youve gotten as an RN?

In your first thread I thought some of the replies you got were out of line with regard to your motivation in becoming a nurse but every one of your threads does seem to only be about the money. Don't get me wrong, no way would I do what I do for free or even less but it truly has to be about more than just the paycheck, imvho.

Of course its the money...

Ive said in my very first thread that the main reason I got into nursing is to take care of my parents since they have no retirement... sorry if it offends others when I try to get inspiration from people by thinking of the possibilities.

Re: Whats the biggest paycheck youve gotten as an RN?

I do not think you will get a straightforward answer to the question you have asked here. It's borderline nosy and pretty irrelevant to anything you would be doing as a nursing student. If you are in this for the money, I would advise against any plans to continue.

(I'm not trying to be witchy or anything, but it bugs the heck out of me when people post multiple threads centered around salary.)

Best of luck in whatever you do.

ADVANCE Salary Survey 2007

Who's gonna admit it that they went into Nursing b/c of the salary?


Question? - Who here works overtime for the extra cash?
