Business & Finance - 9 September 2006

I'm a first year graduate student in speech-language pathology. I absolutely love it. I wouldn't choose to do anything else. I knew going in what the salary was & I thought it was fine...obviously you won't be rich, but I don't think it's bad at all. However, I get discouraged when every website that I read, someone comments that the pay isn't good & seem to say discouragingly, "don't get into this field for the money, that's for sure" kinda thing. I'm not in the field for money, but this scares me that some make it seem like you will be living from paycheck to paycheck. Is this true? Is the salary really that awful?

Does anyone know what areas of the country tend to have the highest salaries for SLPs? What population/setting can SLPs make the most money working with/in? Is it worth it to get a Clinical Doctorate? (I don't want a PhD, I'm looking into the Clinical Doctorate at University of Pittsburgh).

Any other info is appreciated.

I'm looking for demographic, and qualitative (income, education level, etc) data for a particular town in Illinois. I'd also like data on the 5 mile radius around the town, and 10 mile, 15 mile.

Is this something I can find free of charge by doing a modest amount of research, or will I have to hire a service to do so?

I have a middle score of 637, and my boyfriend has a 577, both with credit cards with high balances so I am sure they will go up a little if we pay them off. He has some collections from a few years ago, one from an apt. I make around 26k a year and he makes about45k a year. He is in the business of building homes and he runs a store that sells the materials needed so he has good friends that would build us a home and give us lots of equity. We are looking to get around 150 to 170k to build. Do you think it is possible, or do you know of any loans that would work?

Let's say you pay 70% of your monthly balance... are you still charged an interest for the remaining 30% of that balance?
