@career5690 true. There are policemen, architects, lawyers, garbage men, teachers etc NOT everything people say should be taken literally. That was a kind of sarcastic comment. Tongue in cheek... not to be taken seriously
Thank you sooooo much to Jason and Monica for having me on your podcast. This was my first time being completely transparent about my finances and doing it in front of the world is tough. Thank you for being kind and not ripping me apart after revealing my huge financial mishap. Thankfully, I learned from my mistakes and I’m in a much better space now. I thought that after the pandemic finished, I figured I wouldn’t even see half of what I was making then but now that I’ve pivoted to PRN nursing, I’m finally able to consistently make multiple six figures yearly and finally making smarter decisions with my money. Thank you to everyone who took the time to watch and leave me some positive energy. We work hardddddd as nurses and I hope someone learned from the mistakes I made.
Lovely, thank you so much for being open and sharing your story with everyone who's watching or has watched this video. It takes a serious amount of courage to talk about finances so honestly, especially in front of such a large audience. The mistakes don’t define you; it’s what you’ve learned and how you’ve acted since that really matters. I’m so glad you’re in a better space now and making smarter choices with your money. Your story is a powerful lesson for so many nurses out there-about the ups and downs that come with earning a lot of money-especially in such a short time frame. We all work hard, but knowing how to handle what we earn is a whole other story. Thank you for inspiring everyone who watches this video to learn from your journey.
@perdiemplug I would like to say Thank you for taking care of patients during the pandemic. I wish you could have earned $10,000,000 during the pandemic. I am an electrical engineer & we were sheltering in place during the pandemic while you and other medical professionals were saving patients; so, you earned the money. Thank you.
Thanks! That really means a lot! 🙏 Yeah, RUclips is super hard... that's why you don't see many nurses making videos here. Most just post short videos on Instagram and TikTok instead. Actually, since we started posting more on those apps this year, we got like 40K new followers! But here on RUclips, we've only grown by 14K in the same amount of time. Still, we prefer these longer videos because we can show the whole story of how nurses are so talented and always find a way to make money in ways most don't know are possible! But again, thanks for supporting us!
Nurses (MSN, BSN, RN, PRN, LPN, nurse aid, etc) are the most critical component at the hospital, nursing homes, etc. Majority take care of the patients more so than the doctors. Most important, a nurse with very good technical skills, patient care and personality are a valued commodity. They deserve high dollar pay. Did not realize contracted nurses can command $1M in a yearly salary. Money is great but the care of a nurse with genuine empathy IS critical. Starting your own nursing care business is a BIG need. Be financially literate. Congratulations to this young lady. She has a great personality.
@@DRventura333 They as prn RN’s don’t typically make that. That was a once in many lifetimes event that happened worldwide when Covid happened. RN’s are usually very underpaid.
"nurse with genuine empathy IS critical". I've def encountered a few without empathy while visiting family or my LPN sister in the hospital. If she's well enough, she then has to let them know she knows some things.
Great stories. Prompts to all the nurses. My mom was a nurse and she work so hard as a single mom to raise two kids.. she was basically a workaholic…Now her body and health has taken a toll… Money is good but remember to take care of yourself, body and mind.. As soon as you become permanently disabled.. you can’t take care of anyone else. Know when you have enough and know when to stop and enjoy life. More power to you.
I did 1 contract during Covid and made 72,000 in 3 months doing 4 shifts a week. I then stopped and spent that money over 2 years taking time off for 1st. Regret it till this day 🤦🏾♀️
omg i couldnt click on here fast enough i just seen her on american income on tic tok she is so inspiring to me. im currently taking prerequistes at my local community college this motivated me so much to keep going . i love seeing other nurses doing so well. i was just thinking i wonder will she be on nurses to riches and here we are. awesome thanks jason. nice to here your daughter jason is going for nursing thats so good.

PRN Travel ICU Nurse who lives in Florida but works in California. Ok I need the Sonographer version of this because if I can make close to a million dollars in 1 yr, I would do this for now on. Do for 1 yr and take 6 months to a year break to travel and then start back working to make another close to million.

In Illinois Too. My Daughter Is In Registered Nursing Program. They Are Paying For Her School And Getting Money Back. Go To Community Colleges In Your Community. They Will Pay For Your Nursing Degree.
DUDE, what did she buy every week making over 10K/wk😱 I was shook when I heard she didn’t invest a ton of it or buy a house😅 You best be coming out on top after travel nursing… not being in debt🤦🏻♂️
It hurt me just as much. She rented 7 apartments to sublet them via the Airbnb arbitrage method. Spent a lot of money putting those investments together but ended up losing a lot. Also spent money on materialistic things. I was just as shocked as you (and probably everyone else who watched this video), but thankfully she has learned her lesson and invests a huge portion of her income. She is also still earning over $300k/yr while working as a PRN nurse.
In the Illinois and Missouri area they are always short of nurses. Back in 2007 I was signed up with 3 agencies. All Staff Nursing, Favorite Nursing and HFS. They had daily pay. I worked 8 to 16 hours shift 7 days a week. Making over 4k a week. I miss those days (the money). Now I have a delivery company. Watching this video makes me want to go back.
That is crazy, I am here in central Florida , making 32.67$ per hour with almost 2 years of experience as a staff in a PCU neuro floor .Despite of working overtime, I can’t even save for a down payment for a house.
I love your transparency! Thank you. And please do not beat yourself up for past mistakes, when you know better, you do better. How was working in Bakersfield? Im a NP and considering locum tenens there
Hello, I am a nurse trained in the UK. I remember watching your videos some time ago when I was still as a student nurse. Then I graduated in 2021. I have been almost 3 years as the OR Nurse. (Theatre Practitioner ).Your videos are very informative, You inspired me to think to move to the States but the process seems really complex i.e. choose a state I will work in, which state is best to work in as a theatre nurse etc., passing NCLEX and finding the best trustworthy agencytha could facilitate this process of moving. . Thank you for a very interesting content. Greetings from London.
What about starting a family? Drawbacks of travel nursing is impacts to starting or maintaining a steady family if you have kids. Making a lot of money at what cost?
GREAT INTERVIEW! She’s on 🔥 fire. 🔥 hopefully she will make some better decisions for investing and managing her high income. Jason,you and Monica have been amazing to share how you managed your budget. High pay doesn’t always mean financial success. It’s what assets you retain and what residual value you gain from your investments. As for PRN Specialist RN’s, very high paying. Hospitals must have these RN’s and they’re in high demand because of their high value. Another example would be an PACU or an OR RN.
Thanks Doug! She’s definitely on fire. I hope sharing her story helps other nurses avoid some of the financial mistakes she made, but also learn from her with how she corrected those mistakes. Monica and I had our own wake-up call when we first started earning higher incomes as nurses in NYC. At first, we spent all of our money on travels and materialistic items-just like her-but it took a lot of convincing Monica that it’s not about how much we make, but how much we keep and invest that really matters. High pay alone doesn’t guarantee financial security, and managing it well is the key.
it’s hard not to go on spending sprees when you’re making a lot of money. For me it was just making sure that I wasn’t throwing away rent money and was investing in a mortgage payment. Now, if you have to live in another City or State, try to find a way to get your room and board paid or rent something as a business expense. Hire a professional to help you figure this out if you don’t know how to manage your finances strategically.
Learned so much. I heard of nurses flying out to California for PRN shifts but going back home to live in Florida. Does Lovely help with that as well? Or back to live in their home state wherever that maybe.
Beautiful personality! The work ethic & hustle is amazing! But even after taxes making a milly how you got in debt? I would have like to hear more about that
Great interview! Can't believe Lovely was suspended for not wearing PPE during the initial pandemic, her supervisor should have been on top of that. That's why everyone should have an FU fund but good thing as nurses we have tons of options.
Right? It’s ridiculous that she got fired for something that wasn’t even her fault. Her job didn’t provide proper PPE, and she had to make do with a surgical mask while a whole team rolls in with hazmat suits. That’s why should all have a back up plan and be prepared for it-because stuff like this happens way too often. Thankfully, nurses have options, but it still blows my mind how things like this happen way too often.
ER nurse in Brooklyn. Not better lol. Business as usual. Also did an ER contact in spring 2021 with Loyal Source at Maimonides. On South side it was easily 12 to 20 pts each shift
I'm confused when people always talk about Florida Staffing ratios but when I work as a travel nurse up north they did not have any moral or ethics to their staffing ratio. I was given 8 to 10 patients while in Florida in the ER i am given 3 to 5 patients max, and I have been a travel nurse in the ER in for a while. So now, when someone talks about the ratios in Florida, I always ask them do you know about northeast ratios Because for some reason, the ratio is up north are never talked about while Florida is. Even though we dont have state mandated ratios hospital specific ratios are a thing and they try to stick to them. Also, I've been a resource nurse in florida it's mainly when they were over staffed or a busy floor needed the extra help with meds and labs or wound care.
I love how passionate you both are. I'm learning a lot from you both. Thank you for talking about bad financial choices. I feel like we need to learn more about this and be open about how we can save and investments when the money is rolling in.
Jeez the comment about making $30-31hr being awful killed my spirit 😭 that’s what I currently make in Pennsylvania and the average ranges from $25-$33 as an LPN
I definitely believe it but most likely she’s a Nurse practitioner making that kind of money which is pretty much on the same level as a doctor. Regular Nurses wouldn’t have the potential to make that kind of money in a hospital or medical facility unless they were to open up their own business. Nurse practitioners can make that kind of money in hospitals because they can specialize in extremely high income earning specialties that pay the same income as doctors like a Nurse Anesthetist. I’ve was a Geriatric travel nurse for 19 years before retiring and going back to school to be a Certified Dental Hygienist. I enjoy the field of dentistry better than nursing. The flexibility is really what sold me to switch careers 👍
Did you watch the news when covid was at its peak? Nurses (registered nurses) were easily bringing home 8k to 13k per week because of the hospitals' inability to care for all of the patients being treated in their facilities. And, besides covid, it is absolutely possible to make over $1k per shift as a registered nurse. I can make more than that as a staff nurse in my hospital. If I were to work a 12-hour shift-which I don't, because I prefer to work 8s-I would bring home $1,442. And, Monica, my wife would bring home $1,862 as a per diem registered nurse. So, either you live in a red state or a very rural area, since you are assuming only nurse practitioners can earn a lot of money. In fact, I work with a lot of nurse practitioners who chose to continue working at our hospital as registered nurses because they earn more ($250k+/yr) than they would as practicing NPs.
City college to state is the cheapest route but will also be the most competitive. Private will be the least competitive but most expensive. Half city and half college would be in the middle of the road. She can also start in a city college for her prerequisites and get a job in a Healthcare company that will pay for her tuition.
I just invested in my first new multifamily apartment building, which will have 5 units that will come fully furnished with garages. It's possible to do so and get out of the lie of looking rich and being rich!
@@MianAbubakar-r2r hello, it depends on the agency and the facility requirements. Some agencies want at least 2 years of RN experience (a few settle for 1 year) of your field of specialty. I’ve done contract work for the last 2 years and preparing to start it up again.
Yea I remember those times they we're offering $100 an hour during the pandemic, she cashed out on covid. Some people we're willing to risk their lives working in those hospitals. My mothers friend passed from working in a hospital in canada during the SARS pandemic. It's dirty money working around diseased patients. It's expensive because your putting your life at risk. What a great story though.
I know nurses who have done this. They lived in another state and traveled back and forth to work in California because the pay and employee labor laws are more favorable for nurses. All of those nurses have now permanently moved to California because it was too much of a hassle going back and forth. And it stopped making financial sense to them.
What’s going on in Haiti? I would love to know if the Haitians community in America has abandoned Haiti because I don’t hear no great outcry or see any big activity from the Haitian community in America in place like Florida, New York and etc. I really don’t and so I am wondering why not. It just troubles me.
You can work PRN as an LNP, RN, NP and many other professions. But if you're specifically referring to how much education you need to work PRN as an RN, then you can graduate with an associate's degree in nursing and work as a PRN nurse.
Yes. Mostly people that made Atleast 110+k monthly can make 1 million in year invest (1.4 mil.) I’ve done it & my nurse friend & we both bought a house she’s in Europe I’m here in Washington. I visited her 2 years ago & we both try to do business :-)) I had my Mercedes Benz. So I really has show for it! But now I’m only making half since my twin sons are now in COLLEGE & im trying to get my Major in nursing. So working 20 hrs instead of 40 . I’m blessed !! We are same Jason & your wife is killin it . I’m working on a business myself , STUDYING the whole TAXES stuff coz my bookkeeper quit.
Yes, looking back now, working in a state like California with nurse-to-patient ratios makes all the difference. But I get why it's tough for nurses to go on strike in New York City. Most aren’t paid well enough to save or invest what they’d need to cover unpaid time off, let alone ensure their rent or mortgage is covered during a strike.
Hospitals in NY covered by 1199, NYSNA, or UFT have a 6/8 patient ratio per nurse. I have never heard of 20 - 40 patient ratio. Maybe in a Nursing Home 20/30, not in a hospital. Many nurses in NY did not work throughout the pandemic, which is why NY had a large number of per diem nurses during this period. These nurses were able to sustain themselves throughout that period. Nurses in NY make a decent salary, maybe not a million/year but decent. State Hospitals, which were typically the lowest paying hospitals, now start at 110K per year directly out of school, with no experience. It is a know fact that per diem nurses/float nurses usually get the toughest assignments
@@9uhxhghi800 nurses in NYC are not paid well when you factor in the cost of living. We live in Sacramento where the cost of living is about 30% less than NYC, yet I make $103/hr and Monica (as a per diem nurse) makes $133/hr. There is no way a staff nurse in NYC comes even close to making those rates. I have friends (nurses) with 15+ yrs of experience who work in some of the highest-paying NYC hospitals (NYP, Mount Sinai, HSS, MSK, and Mount Sinai) and they don't even come close to making that much on an hourly basis.
@@NursesToRicheshey, I’ve been watching you for years now. I am graduating in December and just got offered $39/hr to work in the OR. I’m hoping to gain my skills and confidence in them before traveling. Do you think OR nurse is a good specialty for travel contracts?
You can’t just walk out on your patients. That’s very irresponsible. Too many people doing this job just for money. It’s not ALL about money. Not cool.
THERE FEW CONCENTRATIONS OF NURSING WHICH THEY ARE WILLING TO PAY THIS MUCH. ICUs,OR,NEURO ICU, LABOR AND DELIVERY. TO GET TRAINED IN ICU AND LABOR AND DELIVERY; THEY ARE VERY PREJUDICED WHO THEY TAKE; SO ALSO IN LABOR AND DELIVERY; NEURO ICU, PICU. MOST OF THE AREAS TO MAKE THIS KIND OF MONEY YOU NEED SOME INSIDER TO HELP YOU.
One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I hope I make profits.
You are right. The best approach I feel is to diversify investments- by spreading investments across different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.

Im sorry im a number guys. And that math dont add up. 120 an hr 180 ot per hr on 60 hrs a week that 8400 a week times 52 weeks dont add up to a milli..
They were paying her $13k/wk (many travel nurses who were smart only signed up with travel companies that paid $10k-$13k/wk when covid was at its peak) and she was also picking up PRN shifts in between her travel contracts.
@bryanhardeway7102 no, you're absolutely right. She thought she made over $1 million which is why I asked her to send me her W2s. She sent me the W2s for the travel jobs. I included those in the video. They show her earning over $600k and she also worked as a PRN nurse between these contracts, but I didn't get the W2s for those jobs in time to include them before the video was published.
Well, Step 1: They go to college. Step 2: They get a degree in nursing. Step 3: They pass the NCLEX. And Step 4: They apply for jobs until they get an offer.
My friend you and her work a lot over time me too I work a lot overtime so don’t forget to vote for Trump Trump have a policy that no taxes on overtime please!!! Vote for trump all my life i work a lot overtime so I want to have a good benefit too
Umm... I work less than 20 hours per week.. That's not a lot of overtime. Also, can you explain how exactly Trump is going to pass this law and how it would improve the economy, when both parties are already terrible at bringing down our deficit? Even taxfoundation.org (a non-biased organization that has criticized both parties) has stated the following: "This latest proposal would increase Trump’s already promised $6.1 trillion in tax cuts to $6.8 trillion and raise the total deficit increase of his entire tax and tariff plan to $2.0 trillion over 10 years. Further exempting all overtime pay from employee-side payroll taxes (6.2 percent for Social Security and 1.45 percent for Medicare) combined with the income tax exemption would reduce tax revenues by $1.1 trillion over 10 years." And I'm all for reducing our taxes but if you don't have a plan for how you are going to implement these strategies or fix our broken economic issues, then why would I vote for a person like that?

@@theartesana employers will pay for their employees to further their education.
Long time...am going to be on your interview I promise.much love from Zambia
Yesss I’ve done contracts in Columbus Ohio and they have resource nurses as well ! I was so surprised !
Knowledge is POWER!
DUDE, what did she buy every week making over 10K/wk😱 I was shook when I heard she didn’t invest a ton of it or buy a house😅 You best be coming out on top after travel nursing… not being in debt🤦🏻♂️
It hurt me just as much. She rented 7 apartments to sublet them via the Airbnb arbitrage method. Spent a lot of money putting those investments together but ended up losing a lot. Also spent money on materialistic things. I was just as shocked as you (and probably everyone else who watched this video), but thankfully she has learned her lesson and invests a huge portion of her income. She is also still earning over $300k/yr while working as a PRN nurse.
💔😢
In the Illinois and Missouri area they are always short of nurses. Back in 2007 I was signed up with 3 agencies. All Staff Nursing, Favorite Nursing and HFS. They had daily pay. I worked 8 to 16 hours shift 7 days a week. Making over 4k a week. I miss those days (the money). Now I have a delivery company. Watching this video makes me want to go back.
How much does your delivery company make in profit per year?
@@LorinaLancaster-zh4hv still short of nurses now or are you referring to in 2007?
That is crazy, I am here in central Florida , making 32.67$ per hour with almost 2 years of experience as a staff in a PCU neuro floor .Despite of working overtime, I can’t even save for a down payment for a house.
Not all aspects of Florida are as great as they portray it in the media.
New grad in Texas making $40/hr. U need to find a better paying gig dude.
@@juliamnjcomedybeautynews9516 hi! I’m in Vegas on an IMC unit and I’m a New Grad. $41 hrly. Definitely explore your options if possible.
Awesome Interview Lovely! I’m an RN here in Rancho Cucamonga too 😁 Blessings ❤️💐
Hey Neighbor! I work in Rancho and live in Redlands.
Hey heyyyy
This is one of my many FAVORITE episode ever!!! She’s a ROCKSTAR like me;-)
Thank you so much 🙏
I’m an RN in TX making $59.76/hr full-time. I would love to travel again but I have to wait another 6 months to do so.
Where in Texas are you working?

Alot of nurses don't realize that nursing is a skillet you can take on am independent route and cash in fr. Great video
I love your transparency! Thank you. And please do not beat yourself up for past mistakes, when you know better, you do better. How was working in Bakersfield? Im a NP and considering locum tenens there
Hello, I am a nurse trained in the UK. I remember watching your videos some time ago when I was still as a student nurse. Then I graduated in 2021. I have been almost 3 years as the OR Nurse. (Theatre Practitioner ).Your videos are very informative, You inspired me to think to move to the States but the process seems really complex i.e. choose a state I will work in, which state is best to work in as a theatre nurse etc., passing NCLEX and finding the best trustworthy agencytha could facilitate this process of moving. . Thank you for a very interesting content. Greetings from London.
Great interview !
Thank you!
So proud of you. I’m in west Palm Beach FL I’m a hospice nurse I hope to run in to you one day.
Yes!! I hope so too!!
What about starting a family? Drawbacks of travel nursing is impacts to starting or maintaining a steady family if you have kids. Making a lot of money at what cost?
That may be important to some people but in 2023 47% of adults under the age of 50 didn't have children.
During pandemic so many made close to millions.
Yes, I know a few nurses. But lovely currently works as a PRN nurse and still earns $300k+/yr.
Yes. Even CNA’s we’re making over $100k during the pandemic at the hospitals.
Yeah but probably working 6 12hr shifts a week..painful@NursesToRiches
Yup I’m currently in a state school in south Florida then hopefully the hospital I work at can pay for my bachelors. I refuse to be in a lot of debt.
New subscriber here.. Great channel, with great knowledge ❤
GREAT INTERVIEW! She’s on 🔥 fire. 🔥 hopefully she will make some better decisions for investing and managing her high income.
Jason,you and Monica have been amazing to share how you managed your budget.
High pay doesn’t always mean financial success. It’s what assets you retain and what residual value you gain from your investments.
As for PRN Specialist RN’s, very high paying.
Hospitals must have these RN’s and they’re in high demand because of their high value. Another example would be an PACU or an OR RN.
Thanks Doug! She’s definitely on fire. I hope sharing her story helps other nurses avoid some of the financial mistakes she made, but also learn from her with how she corrected those mistakes.
Monica and I had our own wake-up call when we first started earning higher incomes as nurses in NYC. At first, we spent all of our money on travels and materialistic items-just like her-but it took a lot of convincing Monica that it’s not about how much we make, but how much we keep and invest that really matters. High pay alone doesn’t guarantee financial security, and managing it well is the key.
@ absolutely. My youngest son is buying his first home this year and has lots of stocks in many popular companies. He’s 27!
it’s hard not to go on spending sprees when you’re making a lot of money. For me it was just making sure that I wasn’t throwing away rent money and was investing in a mortgage payment. Now, if you have to live in another City or State, try to find a way to get your room and board paid or rent something as a business expense. Hire a professional to help you figure this out if you don’t know how to manage your finances strategically.
I cant work that much. Family is life.
Monica and I have kids, so we feel the same.
Learned so much. I heard of nurses flying out to California for PRN shifts but going back home to live in Florida. Does Lovely help with that as well? Or back to live in their home state wherever that maybe.
I believe she does, but you can message her on Instagram to find out.
Beautiful personality! The work ethic & hustle is amazing! But even after taxes making a milly how you got in debt? I would have like to hear more about that
Yea that is right. During the pandemic, nurses could get that rate, but i don’t think that rate still here anymore
The travel nurses I know of have RVs and live really cheaply but get generous housing allowance.
Congratulations ❤
You and Monica don’t look like yall have a college age kid lol I thought you guys was like 25 😂
Well, we'll look our age when our son is 18 because he's 15 years younger than our daughter, lol.
They should let us just travel in whatever state we want without having to worry about applying for different states licenses
Watching from Bakersfield!
I miss Bakersfield!!
Great interview! Can't believe Lovely was suspended for not wearing PPE during the initial pandemic, her supervisor should have been on top of that. That's why everyone should have an FU fund but good thing as nurses we have tons of options.
Right? It’s ridiculous that she got fired for something that wasn’t even her fault. Her job didn’t provide proper PPE, and she had to make do with a surgical mask while a whole team rolls in with hazmat suits. That’s why should all have a back up plan and be prepared for it-because stuff like this happens way too often. Thankfully, nurses have options, but it still blows my mind how things like this happen way too often.
Is this type of pay or nursing available in Canada. Please interview someone from Canada 😊
ER nurse in Brooklyn. Not better lol. Business as usual.
Also did an ER contact in spring 2021 with Loyal Source at Maimonides. On South side it was easily 12 to 20 pts each shift
I figured. So much for these laws they keep claiming are actually making things better in the state...
You just got a new subscriber!!!
Thank you!
Thank you so much 🙏
I'm confused when people always talk about Florida Staffing ratios but when I work as a travel nurse up north they did not have any moral or ethics to their staffing ratio. I was given 8 to 10 patients while in Florida in the ER i am given 3 to 5 patients max, and I have been a travel nurse in the ER in for a while. So now, when someone talks about the ratios in Florida, I always ask them do you know about northeast ratios Because for some reason, the ratio is up north are never talked about while Florida is. Even though we dont have state mandated ratios hospital specific ratios are a thing and they try to stick to them. Also, I've been a resource nurse in florida it's mainly when they were over staffed or a busy floor needed the extra help with meds and labs or wound care.
I got my ASN BSN and MSNFNP
I love how passionate you both are. I'm learning a lot from you both. Thank you for talking about bad financial choices. I feel like we need to learn more about this and be open about how we can save and investments when the money is rolling in.
Jeez the comment about making $30-31hr being awful killed my spirit 😭 that’s what I currently make in Pennsylvania and the average ranges from $25-$33 as an LPN
I definitely believe it but most likely she’s a Nurse practitioner making that kind of money which is pretty much on the same level as a doctor. Regular Nurses wouldn’t have the potential to make that kind of money in a hospital or medical facility unless they were to open up their own business. Nurse practitioners can make that kind of money in hospitals because they can specialize in extremely high income earning specialties that pay the same income as doctors like a Nurse Anesthetist. I’ve was a Geriatric travel nurse for 19 years before retiring and going back to school to be a Certified Dental Hygienist. I enjoy the field of dentistry better than nursing. The flexibility is really what sold me to switch careers 👍
Did you watch the news when covid was at its peak? Nurses (registered nurses) were easily bringing home 8k to 13k per week because of the hospitals' inability to care for all of the patients being treated in their facilities.
And, besides covid, it is absolutely possible to make over $1k per shift as a registered nurse. I can make more than that as a staff nurse in my hospital. If I were to work a 12-hour shift-which I don't, because I prefer to work 8s-I would bring home $1,442. And, Monica, my wife would bring home $1,862 as a per diem registered nurse. So, either you live in a red state or a very rural area, since you are assuming only nurse practitioners can earn a lot of money. In fact, I work with a lot of nurse practitioners who chose to continue working at our hospital as registered nurses because they earn more ($250k+/yr) than they would as practicing NPs.
Im a cvor nurse in a trauma hospital and i love it!
Ok, so!
If you as a nurse were to go back in time , what route would you recommend my Gf to take, city college to a state or private ?
City college to state is the cheapest route but will also be the most competitive. Private will be the least competitive but most expensive. Half city and half college would be in the middle of the road. She can also start in a city college for her prerequisites and get a job in a Healthcare company that will pay for her tuition.
@@NursesToRiches
Thank you for prompt response and advice. Much appreciated! ❤️
@MACQJR you're welcome!
I just invested in my first new multifamily apartment building, which will have 5 units that will come fully furnished with garages. It's possible to do so and get out of the lie of looking rich and being rich!
She worked where I was until 2023, Maimonides, I worked there for all 20 years. With this election, we may need to be ready for the next pandemic 😢😢
Hey do you know how much study or years is required to become prn coz I’m interested
@@MianAbubakar-r2r hello, it depends on the agency and the facility requirements. Some agencies want at least 2 years of RN experience (a few settle for 1 year) of your field of specialty. I’ve done contract work for the last 2 years and preparing to start it up again.
@@dr_rn7086 actually i have applied recently in nany universities and schools and coming from abroad to do BSN program
So do you know any good nursing school or university so that i can apply in them too
What a strange thing to say . . .
They say people who get a lot of money usually almost always lose it.
So what did she do?
Yea I remember those times they we're offering $100 an hour during the pandemic, she cashed out on covid.
Some people we're willing to risk their lives working in those hospitals.
My mothers friend passed from working in a hospital in canada during the SARS pandemic.
It's dirty money working around diseased patients.
It's expensive because your putting your life at risk.
What a great story though.
So you can live in New York and work in a different state? I just don’t want to leave New York …
I know nurses who have done this. They lived in another state and traveled back and forth to work in California because the pay and employee labor laws are more favorable for nurses. All of those nurses have now permanently moved to California because it was too much of a hassle going back and forth. And it stopped making financial sense to them.
What’s going on in Haiti? I would love to know if the Haitians community in America has abandoned Haiti because I don’t hear no great outcry or see any big activity from the Haitian community in America in place like Florida, New York and etc. I really don’t and so I am wondering why not. It just troubles me.
So what did you do with the million dollars? 😊
Lmfao
I spoke about this. Scaled too fast with Airbnb
She mentioned it in the video.
That’s about right. Traveling nurses make the most….
Hey do you know how much study or years is required to become prn coz I’m interested
Anytime. If you have your degree, you can be PRN whenever you can
@@Abmarp means degree of bsn
You can work PRN as an LNP, RN, NP and many other professions. But if you're specifically referring to how much education you need to work PRN as an RN, then you can graduate with an associate's degree in nursing and work as a PRN nurse.
Guy I am first year at bsn program and I learned hand washing and bed making in my fundamentals of nursing
Am I eligible to be a prn 😂😂
I know a few of my Haitian nurse friends who became millionaires during COVID 19 from traveling contracts.
Yes. Mostly people that made Atleast 110+k monthly can make 1 million in year invest (1.4 mil.) I’ve done it & my nurse friend & we both bought a house she’s in Europe I’m here in Washington. I visited her 2 years ago & we both try to do business :-))
I had my Mercedes Benz. So I really has show for it! But now I’m only making half since my twin sons are now in COLLEGE & im trying to get my Major in nursing. So working 20 hrs instead of 40 . I’m blessed !! We are same Jason & your wife is killin it . I’m working on a business myself , STUDYING the whole TAXES stuff coz my bookkeeper quit.
How much monthly ?
Hearing you guys talk about losing all of your money makes me mad! 😂
I figured many people would feel that way, lol. Thankfully she is wiser today because of the mistakes she made back then.
Has to be during covid.
Yes, that is what we said several times throughout the video. She now makes $300k or more per year as a PRN nurse.
😮😮😮😮😮😮 20-40 pt load, I’m walking out the door, that’s nursing care suicide!!!
Yes, looking back now, working in a state like California with nurse-to-patient ratios makes all the difference. But I get why it's tough for nurses to go on strike in New York City. Most aren’t paid well enough to save or invest what they’d need to cover unpaid time off, let alone ensure their rent or mortgage is covered during a strike.
Hospitals in NY covered by 1199, NYSNA, or UFT have a 6/8 patient ratio per nurse. I have never heard of 20 - 40 patient ratio. Maybe in a Nursing Home 20/30, not in a hospital. Many nurses in NY did not work throughout the pandemic, which is why NY had a large number of per diem nurses during this period. These nurses were able to sustain themselves throughout that period. Nurses in NY make a decent salary, maybe not a million/year but decent. State Hospitals, which were typically the lowest paying hospitals, now start at 110K per year directly out of school, with no experience. It is a know fact that per diem nurses/float nurses usually get the toughest assignments
@@9uhxhghi800 nurses in NYC are not paid well when you factor in the cost of living. We live in Sacramento where the cost of living is about 30% less than NYC, yet I make $103/hr and Monica (as a per diem nurse) makes $133/hr. There is no way a staff nurse in NYC comes even close to making those rates. I have friends (nurses) with 15+ yrs of experience who work in some of the highest-paying NYC hospitals (NYP, Mount Sinai, HSS, MSK, and Mount Sinai) and they don't even come close to making that much on an hourly basis.
This must be the covid days bc ain't no way
Everyone that makes these big salaries works in California.
Not everyone. Nurses in Northern California are paid better than nurses in Southern California.
@@NursesToRicheshey, I’ve been watching you for years now. I am graduating in December and just got offered $39/hr to work in the OR. I’m hoping to gain my skills and confidence in them before traveling. Do you think OR nurse is a good specialty for travel contracts?
@saintfuego1822 OR travel nurses are the highest-paid RN specialties in the traveling industry.
In America, a nurse made a million dollars?
You can’t just walk out on your patients. That’s very irresponsible. Too many people doing this job just for money. It’s not ALL about money. Not cool.
Do you have to say South Florida? Isn't it still Florida?
It’s just a habit of mines.
Some jobs are too much. One needs stability (instead if traveling so frequently). Also, the things you are required to do in nursing. No thanks.
That is why she now lives in California full time and works as a PRN nurse.
THERE FEW CONCENTRATIONS OF NURSING WHICH THEY ARE WILLING TO PAY THIS MUCH.
ICUs,OR,NEURO ICU, LABOR AND DELIVERY. TO GET TRAINED IN ICU AND LABOR AND DELIVERY; THEY ARE VERY PREJUDICED WHO THEY TAKE; SO ALSO IN LABOR AND DELIVERY; NEURO ICU, PICU.
MOST OF THE AREAS TO MAKE THIS KIND OF MONEY YOU NEED SOME INSIDER TO HELP YOU.
When you work with many nurses, you can quickly see why certain departments are very choosy who they will work with.
Guys u make 1 million a year? How many hours u work? Do u eat sleep have kids partners ..... 😅
Hi, she answered all of those questions in the video.
Congrats 🍾🎈🎉 a Florida USA 🇺🇸 based company also gives $1M plus to a french fries vendor in the Philippines and other around the world. 🌍
One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I hope I make profits.
You are right. The best approach I feel is to diversify investments- by spreading investments across different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.

Im sorry im a number guys. And that math dont add up. 120 an hr 180 ot per hr on 60 hrs a week that 8400 a week times 52 weeks dont add up to a milli..
They were paying her $13k/wk (many travel nurses who were smart only signed up with travel companies that paid $10k-$13k/wk when covid was at its peak) and she was also picking up PRN shifts in between her travel contracts.
@@NursesToRiches not being a hater im just trying to understand but even 13k a week dosent give you a milli
@bryanhardeway7102 no, you're absolutely right. She thought she made over $1 million which is why I asked her to send me her W2s. She sent me the W2s for the travel jobs. I included those in the video. They show her earning over $600k and she also worked as a PRN nurse between these contracts, but I didn't get the W2s for those jobs in time to include them before the video was published.
No wonder heslthcare is so dam expensive and unaffordable.
Oh you're here? There's the door, goofynuts.
Not because of the nurses.
Not because of nurses leave them alone
you can become a nurse too.
Are you mad that nurses getting paid what they deserve? 😂😂😂
Not replace by AI lol...all of us are going to be replace...
How do men decide to become nurses? That's my question. Never understood that.
Well, Step 1: They go to college. Step 2: They get a degree in nursing. Step 3: They pass the NCLEX. And Step 4: They apply for jobs until they get an offer.
@@NursesToRichesLMAO😂😂
we need more men in the field !!
My friend you and her work a lot over time me too I work a lot overtime so don’t forget to vote for Trump Trump have a policy that no taxes on overtime please!!! Vote for trump all my life i work a lot overtime so I want to have a good benefit too
Umm... I work less than 20 hours per week.. That's not a lot of overtime. Also, can you explain how exactly Trump is going to pass this law and how it would improve the economy, when both parties are already terrible at bringing down our deficit?
Even taxfoundation.org (a non-biased organization that has criticized both parties) has stated the following:
"This latest proposal would increase Trump’s already promised $6.1 trillion in tax cuts to $6.8 trillion and raise the total deficit increase of his entire tax and tariff plan to $2.0 trillion over 10 years. Further exempting all overtime pay from employee-side payroll taxes (6.2 percent for Social Security and 1.45 percent for Medicare) combined with the income tax exemption would reduce tax revenues by $1.1 trillion over 10 years."
And I'm all for reducing our taxes but if you don't have a plan for how you are going to implement these strategies or fix our broken economic issues, then why would I vote for a person like that?
Who ever work overtime please!!! Vote for trump
She blew her bag. Sad!! Super sad!!
But I made it right back so I’m good now. Lesson learned for sure lol
I'm hoping that moving forward she's making better money moves, because I definitely she's an internal tear when she said that money was gone 😭
Ain’t no way y’all are laughing at $30/hour when I currently make $12/hours across two jobs 🥲
please find a way to get a skillful that pays more. Especially if your are under 50yrs of age.
So proud of you. I’m in west Palm Beach FL I’m a hospice nurse I hope to run in to you one day.
