Nurses make really good money in the United States. And it is always in demand.

With the union rules and all the mandatory overtime, they can earn well over six figures.

The salaries are easily comparable to some senior software engineering salaries. And they can reach that level a lot faster than some engineers can. They can also work at multiple hospitals, to further boost their income.

Given all that, it’s reasonable to assume that some men will enter the profession also.
