I don't like overtime 40 hours a week is more than enough time spent working in 1 lifetime. Not to mention the time a lot of people lose commuting.
If anything everybody should be trying to work less.

However, if I were a nurse, the first thing I'd do is start getting the experience needed for CRNA schools. Usually a couple of years of critical care or equivalent. CRNAs do ball making upwards of $200k.

24 year old Mechanical Engineer making roughly $120k. Normally I work 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, but if I stay late, come in on a weekend, or work at home I don't get paid for it. However, I only need to do that when I have a deadline to hit and in this last year I came in on 3 saturdays, stayed late a few weeks (usually when the trains are fuk'd up). I guess it would come out to around $50-$55 an hour depending on what my workload looks like.

She's going to try for NP instead much easier acceptance.Yep, now travel RNs can make a good deal more than $100k. As you noted, a great way to build up a cash reserve prior to starting a family.

But yes CRNAs do command a good rate you're an actual provider at that point and not just staff.

I'm comfortable in my misc-assigned poverty status. Obviously it'd be nice to be a 100K earner, but I'm not, so it is what it is.

Be comfortable and content with what you have while always pursuing new skills and progress.
What field are you in if you don't mind me asking?

Or get into medical billing. Same thing, more money because the industry is richer.

Just got promoted effective January 1st.. making 90k base, 70k variable, for a total of $160k OTE.
Have lived in Boston steadily making promotions, and recently decided to move out to the mountain west. Was able to negotiate a 40k raise in tandem with moving to a much lower cost-of-living area, because a ton of people at my company quit and they basically did anything they could to make me stay.

I value my time.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
