70k is definitely not enough for the long run. Hell, here in SoCal, 100k a year will just place you in the upper middle class area, considering a nice 1,200 sq ft house in a decent area will run at least half a million.
70k is definitely not enough to get a BMW if you apply the spend 20% of your salary on a car theory...which many people don't.
I think there are ways to get around to being an RN w/o going to a university. My mom was a nurse in Thailand, came to U.S. 15 years ago, started out as LVN, took test and became an RN.
