Sounds like you answered your own question. Good luck.
Thanks man. And even though I don't need to reel in 70k to feel comfortable, what is the realistic hourly rate for a PTA in your experience? Cause I don't want to be broke either.

I've been out for a year in May and most of my classmates make between 30 and 35 an hour. There are outliers but most fall in that range.

Nosaj, I know in home health I pay my PTA about 40$/visit before taxes. In outpatient or hospital settings I'm not real sure, but I would think you'd start at least 40-45k/year?
