Hello from a newbie

Nurses General Nursing

Hello everyone, I just took the NCLEX PN exam on August 4th and passed. So basically besides my clinicals, I have no experience. I was talking to another nurse yesterday about job opportunities. I mentioned that I was thinking of working in a doctor's office, just so I can have the 9-5, weekends off schedule. She said "well you'll never make any money that way". That kinda bothered me. I'm really new to this, is it such a big deal "to make money" in nursing? I thought it was all about helping people. I'm really lucky that I don't have to work, my husband can provide for us. Maybe I'm just being naive. Any comments?

Congrats on passing the NCLEX!!!
