OK, seriously ... My friends, a married dude and wife, are both travelling nurses, and they make a mint. They actually moved to New Zealand, and are doing the same thing there, now making a mint there instead.

Apparently if you're registered and willing to travel a little bit ... or actually want to travel, which they did ... you can cash some serioze checks.

if you upgrade to a nurse anesthetist, you'll make 6 figs easy. + hospital bonuses.

how much more schooling does that take?

there is a larger need for male nurses, so you do have a benefit right now

NOT EASY TO GET IN THE PROGRAM, NOR IS IT EASY....FYI

if your getting into it to make money you're never gonna like it

find something you like and do that

and the crappy nurses who take my blood every 6 months are awful.

The only person who has done it right is a guy

I'm a CNA cus when I was in high school I thought I wanted to go into a medical profession so I took the CNA courses before school but know I just use it to make decent money while I go to school for LAN management.

well if you're younger and still live at home id go to school as long as I could

yeah 4-6 years seems like a long time but its really not when you figure in that you are training for a job you will most likely be doing all your life

there are times I wanna go back 1-2 years to learn more //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

An anesthesiologist assistant makes around 90k a year starting out. You also have to attend graduate school as well(6 years total). It's not exactly an easy course load either. The pay is great though. The most important thing of all is that it is a growing occupation. Great field to get into.
