I'm going to be a firefighter/Paramedic just like my parents. I got about 2 years left till I start my training and I'm currently a volunteer.
In Portsmouth, Virginia, they start at 50k a year and Virginia Beach starts at 56k a year, for FF/EMT-Ps.
Looking at the cost of living in Virginia and North-east North Carolina, Is 50-56k enough money to live well. I'm not asking for much, I just want a decent size house in a good neighborhood and a nice car like a Mustang.
I also plan on doing ER technician part-time, and that will put my total pay at 75k a year.
Is 50-56k a year enough?
