Everyone is talking about money and pay so tell me how much did your education cost.
I figure I will have around 40-45K in my education. So tell me when you compare this to other jobs what do you think.
Example my brother works at a box plant where he has been there for about 5 years. He makes around 38K if he works no overtime. As a nurse I will make around 45K. Ok that is 7k more a year but I have 4.5 years of school involved and his job requires O. (he just got a degree and is looking for a new job)
I will have more security then him I know but, which is more important; a box or your health. Which would you pay more for?
Also, please do not misunderstand, I am glad he makes a far pay for our area. However it just bothers me when you think about the box/health question.
