Career change

[gja1000]

Lindsay, I do understand what you are saying - it is wonderful to do something you love everyday - because I do that, so I know. But, you are right, you can't do something that you love, if you can't make a living wage. How about being a vet? I know, it is a lot of money and a long time, so maybe that isn't practical either. But then, you never know!

In my job, I work with a program for people who have a bachelor's degree in something else, but want to come into nursing. We have a 3 year program so that when they graduate, they have a master's in nursing. I work with people who have always wanted to be a nurse, and now they are doing it. We have people of all ages in the program - some who are in their 40's, 50' and even 60's, living out their dream.

It's great!
