7 x 12s for 13 weeks

Hello friends. I am in the middle of a huge pickle and need money. I have had to pay for my child’s medical expenses and, unfortunately, their funeral. I am looking at over $100k after I have exhausted all options (it was originally $220k).

I have resorted to travel nursing (I did it before in 2020-2021) and signed a 48 hour contract. I now have no more family to stay home for :(

My friends, who are currently doing 7x12s, are in a somewhat similar situation so have pushed themselves to do 7 x 12s for the past 6 months… and seem to have no yearn to stop. They want to retire in 3 years and say that it will allow them to reach their goals.

My question is not if it’s possible. I know it’s absolutely ludicrous but the thought of making 80k in 3 months (probably 65k post-tax) would literally get me out a large portion of my situation.

My question is: for people who HAVE done it, how did you do it?

Edit: thank you for all of the condolences. You all are so beautiful. ♥️
