It really depends on your credentials, job title and location. I would suggest you take a look at salary.com. I hope this helps.

The type of nursing, where you work, and in what part of the country, or what country, all play a part in salary. Some nurses are very well compensated.
And, if you're willing to locate, a job is not hard to find.
I would work on my spelling first, though - "mutch"? It's "much."

It depends on your level of training (LPN, RN), your work (ICU, ER, etc.) and where you work (hospital, clinic, nursing home). Hospital can be stressful work, but nurses are in short supply, so many nurses can pretty much pick their shifts, and weekends/nights get pay differential up to 2x. I had a friend who was a nurse in the south a few years ago. She worked hospital weekends only and earned (due to differential) maybe $30/hr for three 12-hour shifts each weekend.
Nurse friends tell me the best jobs are in doctors' offices (low stress). Hospitals tend to have good benefits. Nursing homes are less desirable.

I make almost 60K and that's not even working in a hospital where the pay is higher. There are many factors that can influence how much nurses bring home: insurance deductibles, 401K contributions, etc.

It depends on what kind of nurse you want to be. There's all different types of Nurses. Nurses can make between $24,000-$100,000 or more a year. It all depends on your experience and what you are experienced in. Good luck to you and your future.

Not enough for the education and hours worked. The daily hours and stress are very high.

It really depends aon what kind of nursing you do (hospital, surgical, OB, long term care, or family care). and possibly what shift you work.

Between $1000 and $1500 a week. Let's see.... that would be between $52,000 and $78,000 per year.
'Nuff said?
