I think you should think critically about those expectations. First of all, they're out of date, so it sounds to me like they were lifted off of a pamphlet that no one's bothered updating in at least two years. The new numbers from the BLS say that 10-year growth is 33% (big change from 38% in 2 years), and the median (not average) pay is about $70,000. Whether that means there will actually be jobs in your area, or whether those jobs in your area will actually pay that much once she's got the degree is anyone's guess. What your wife wants to do with her life matters a lot more than the possible job growth percentage or median salary, especially since you'll need to spend money on credits, exams, etc. It's also not a great idea to bank on not having to reduce hours. No one can predict how well they'll be able to handle that kind of workload.

Because we've been doing so well we'll actually be able to pay rent by then and considering there's less than 100 units in our complex and most people don't pay on the first (hence the drawing) I'd say our odds are OK. What the gently caress? Your landlord has to bribe tenants into paying rent on time?
