I’m a travel RN for the past 4 years. I’ve seen nurses buying luxury cars, going on lavish vacations, etc. I stuck with my 2014 Honda Civic and paid off all my debt. Saved up for a house and now I finally bought my house. The next step is paying off this mortgage. I take pleasure in simple things. Just going outside for long walks and hikes, going to state and national parks. God has blessed me immensely 🙌🏽

Don’t follow other people. You don’t know how far they are in debt. The pictures won’t tell you that. Continue with your 401K and build your emergency fund. You will be happy at retirement. Pace your self. Watch out for charge cards, it’s a for profit business. It’s not for you.

What helped me a few years ago in my financial journey was joining a sousou A sousou is when a group of people decides to set a certain amount of money each month in a pool or an account, for example, $100 a month. Each month , a person in that group gets to collect that amount. It can last 6 months to a year or more. Most last a year. The more people that join, the more money you get . Besides having a lump sum of money coming to you at once, that process teaches you responsibility as well. This will help you to quickly save for an emergency fund. I did it for 6 years. Now, I no longer need to do it because I was able to save 6 months of emergency funds. I contribute that same amount, though, for myself, each month towards that emergency fund.

RN here.. only been in the field 5 years. Let me just say, if you’re a nurse who lives paycheck to paycheck, you are obviously very bad at managing your money. The first few years after graduating and starting my career, I had to work my a** off, work OT, nights and weekends. I was focused on aggressively paying off debt and student loans. But it paid off. After 2 years I was able to become debt free by living within my means and not living the extravagant lifestyle some of my peers had begun. Now, I can say I feel comfortable. I’m able to max out my 401K and my Roth IRA every year, and have a fully funded 6 month emergency fund. Now my extra money is being invested into the market. Anything is possible, guys. It’s not about the job, it’s the mindset. There are teachers and even janitors who make far less money than nurses who are wise and accumulate a lot of wealth!

Been a nurse since 2011, been a travel nurse since 2017. Seven figure net worth and 4 houses paid off. If there’s one advice I can give anyone it’s “live below your means”. The nice car, nice shoes, nice clothes, will only make you “happy” for a short time. Nothing bad about taking trips or vacations but you can do it the cheap and affordable way. My trips are flying to somewhere, hiking multiple trails, taking photos and sleeping in my rental car. I only spend 25% of my monthly income and the rest goes into the stock market or buying land.

Nurses like to compete with each other who has the best car, house or designer bags. One nurse bought a house that is almost $2 million in Cali. She is working 6 days sometimes 7 to pay for that house and her “lifestyle”. She is over 60 y old, her daughter with her 5 kids from different fathers also live with her so she is responsible for them too. I bought a little cheap townhouse as a single woman and I am ok with that. No student loan. I rarely travel while some of them are taking trips every 2-3 months.

I'm not a nurse but I'm a housekeeper at a hospital. I have to listen to all the bragging and people trying to out do each other. I had to listen to them brag about all the extra money they were making during the pandemic. Now comes the struggle because there's no more pandemic and no extra money. Not a lot of bragging going on now. They are all trying to pick up extra shifts. I paid off any extra debt I had which wasn't a lot a couple of weeks ago. Just because someone is a doctor or nurse doesn't mean they aren't low key struggling financially. I'm a housekeeper, no debt, peace of mind with a credit score over 800. I have blinders on. I don't care about what other people buy or have. I don't try to keep up with the Joneses because the joneses are most likely putting up a front. They should have been using all that extra pandemic money to pay off their student loans instead of buying houses and going on trips. When I hear them complaining about how expensive groceries and gas are I think to myself quit complaining you should have made better decisions with all the extra money you made. Respect to the nurses who made good decisions with their money and didn't waste it trying to outdo someone else. It's not worth it financially.

I too spent many years in school and just lifing to where once I elevated I wanted to do EVERYTHING, all at once... and I'm paying for it now😕. I am almost embarrassed at how frivolously I have spent. My husband and I are taking our kids to Nickelodeon Resort in Punta Cana next month. My son who has no concept of money has been dying to go for awhile now. This is IT! When we get back we are buckling down. And I mean alllll the way down.

It is true the more you make, the more you can spend ……then the economy tanks so when you thought finally you can get ahead…and nope! I decided last month to give it a try at starting my own KZitem channel. I’ve seen so many that make a good side income with KZitem. My goal is 6 months to monetization.

Many say, "The more you have the more you spend," but people can be so dumb that they still spend too much and can't afford it. If you can't afford a vacation, you can't go. If you can't afford a new car, don't buy new. If you can't afford a house, don't buy a house. If you can't afford to have a kid or kids, don't have kids. The list goes on. It ain't that hard to understand.

He ain’t lying. My ex best friend was a nurse who drove two BMWs granted they were not brand new, but she got it apartment in downtown Atlanta on top of that. It was always out of money. I think, regardless of the profession our generation is just built on keeping up with the Joneses. I’m in my 30s and I already have six figures in my 401(k), but at the same time is hard to keep a good savings on hand where I can just go to the bank and take out what I need and make decent money

Thanks for sharing this man. It is very true. As a RN, I feel I was spending everything I made. I haven’t done anything lavish but I was just spending everything I made, utilizing a lot of credit, and helping family with their financial issues. I have been working on decreasing my CC debt. I went from $24K CC to 9K and have 50K in student loans (from private school) and 25K left on my auto loan (Honda). It’s been a struggle but slowly I’m changing my financial habits. The problem I have was not learning how to budget and using credit. I don’t have to keep up with the trends. I want to start keeping my money too as a nurse. I’m a work in progress. To the nurses in the struggle, we have to be wise with our money and change if not we will be broke when we retire and throughout our career. Good luck to everyone coming out of debt.😢

Watch out for the power of social media pulls that will only cause you to lose focus of your goals. Social Media in itself is not "all bad"---We just have to be disciplined & stand firm, even if it means pulling back or even eliminating some social media outlet---We each have to be True to ourselves & make that determination!

I understand, you don't want to pay the price for living a LIFE. On the other hand, you could be the cheap guy in the room who saves all his money with no relationship and no kids, which you probably wouldn't be able to withstand. No one wants to be the cheap guy, but you want to be more like him to maximize your economic potential and growth. Money isn't everything. You're doing fine for yourself. It's different for everyone. For me, I am the cheap guy in the room, because naturally I'm ASIAN and an INTROVERT - I really don't have an inherent strong sense of urgency to have children and FOMO/YOLO out on life to begin with. Know your personality type. At the end of the day, you are who you are.

I'm a Nurse as well MSN, FNP, RN. and when I graduated from school for the first four years every check was dedicated to student loan and I'm cleared as of 2017. I've learned through our my career that the Jones aren't me and I'm not them. I've budgeted and invested well and I don't have children but I'm married and he's in the medical field as well. Our income is strong together and we diversified well. We both went to a financial advisor and strategically implemented a family plan that's effective and sustainable.

This is where people are going wrong. If you have not analyze the world you live in, we all need to . We are living in inflated times. Living rich is so NOT trips and material, school teachers and other occupations do this as well. You can be rich in life by doing the simple things. I racked up in some discount and hotel rewards ❤no shame in it and paid months in advance for not much at all. I vacation during off season when most people are 😂 working. Its cheaper IJS and I have no shame in it. Slow down, don't follow others, create your own memories.
