How much do a nurse make a year?

Depends on what state you live in, what kind of nurse you are and where you are working. Most FT Hospital RNs make at least 60K. I work in case managemant and have been there 4 years and am making about 62K but I have an area of expertise that I have been doing for at least 10 years. Most hospital RN's with 5 or more years expertise in central US can make 80K a year.
