Did you know that RNs account for the largest number of healthcare workers?

As an RN, you’ll be expected to provide patient care, health education, and emotional support for patients and families.

To become a registered nurse, you’ll need a relevant degree or diploma. And most importantly, you’ll need to become licensed.

It’s no secret that this is a very demanding job. But RNs do get paid well and no one’s ever going to mistake it for a boring desk job.

Projected growth rate between 2019 and 2029: 24% (faster than average)

Solving problems is the main focal point of software development.

Finding ways to automate tasks and improve human interaction with technology, will be part of your daily duties.

While having a relevant degree can help you, it’s not a requirement.

There are many successful software developers earning a comfortable living without degrees. If you want to be like them, you’ll need to invest in a course and become certified (if necessary), to prove you have the required skills.

Imagine getting paid almost a quarter of a million dollars to poke people and use cold metal objects to listen to their bodies.

How many other jobs would pay you to do that?

Unless you get paid to torture humans, the only way to legally do that is to become a doctor of some kind.

You already know the deal here…

You’ll have to spend almost a decade of your life getting all the expensive qualifications, experience, and necessary skills.
