Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists are garnering

salaries higher than some physicians, according to a survey

released this month by Allied Consulting, a Dallas-based

health care staffing firm. The survey shows that CRNA

salary offers are reaching $180,000 annually.

We all work to pay the rent, but I still go by the old adage, "Money can't buy happiness". Yes,it can ease many burdens...but what does the $180,000 cost them? Their family time, student loans, no free time? If you truly want to be a MD or CRNA or anything, GO FOR IT, but at least like what you do.
