Recent Grads

Published

Hi! I just wanted to know how much a recent grad earned in the chicago area and other local suburbs. I just want to know how much your employer and Uncle Sam takes out of your paycheck. I'm not wondering in hopes to purchase a big house or whatever. I wanted to plan out my financial future in hopes of returning to school for my MSN after recieving my BSN. I would like to know if working PT and going to school would be enough to support my family. Perhaps, should I work FT and wait to get a raise? How long will that take? Thank you for your time.
