Development or Nursing are about the only two decent prospects of drawing a decent salary now without a decade of education investment. re: Nursing. Jobs are actually really pretty tight right now. (I moonlight as an ER nurse in SV). New graduates with no experience have having to move to get jobs. But, then, this area supports the highest salaries for nurses in the country. There's also substantial money to be made as a police officer or fireman, but it's extremely hard to get a job in those areas. I'll stick with nursing for a bit longer because it pays really well, and I only work 3 12 hour shifts a week. It's perfect for boot strapping. I'll quit when we can raise an angel round.
