My best bud's wife only been an RN for one year, and is already making more than him (A 9 year capt. at XJT), less than full time, and is home every night. It has me, at 32, even considering it! But I don't know, like I said I don't mind the job of being a pilot so much, it's the lifestyle I'm completely sick of. I'm an extremely active person who lives through my hobbies and interests, most of which I don't have time to pursue anymore. Being an RN sounds like it's got some really, really nasty parts, but I'd be able to live in my home city, not have to commute, and actually double my home time each month. <flips a coin>....
