I have worked in medical settings for most of my career and have made a lot of friends who happen to be RNs. Every single one of them earns at least $67k per year. Many earn substantially more.

Nursing is a low paying career? On what planet?

"Too deep in debt to Yale."
Did you explain to her that you were already totally fucked the moment you signed the papers?
We don't use umbrellas here either, so if I even go and visit the NW will I automatically be in stealth mode?
The moneychangers won.
It's just another snapshot of life in Obama's America.
Churches? What about "tax-avoidance" multinationals and personal wealth stashed in offshore accounts?
