The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 22, 2024

Clark, our cat, the day after we brought him home from the shelter. For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). This only happened after we stopped owning homes and became renters.

Did you know that unless you get a masters degree you are likely to earn less than $65K a year for full time RN work? At my last employer, unbeknownst to me at the time, many of the executive level officers all attended the same private college. You need to be there, and on time. I studied psychology in school.
