I am attending college here in Columbus Ohio USA working on my Master's degree in Nursing (MSN)?
I am attending college here in Columbus Ohio USA working on my Master's degree in Nursing (MSN) Question Details: I am going to school fulltime and working part-time.I inherited money from my deceased father and was wondering whether to use $220,000 dollars to buy a 2 bedroom 1250 square feet condo or keep it invested in Abbott Laboratories stock??? I currently rent $675/month but my building is being sold and I'm sure they will raise the rent.Would i do better by keeping it invested or buying a place with no mortgage payment.

There are way too many variables to give you a good answer on the information provided. How long will you stay in the area? What is the trend in real estate prices in your neighborhood? What other assets, liabilities, income and expenditures do you have? Seek the service of a Certified Financial Planner to help you sort through all the questions. One thing I can tell you: move the money out of the stock. Don't be invested in a single stock, there is too much risk there. I have nothing against Abbott Labs, I just don't recommend being invested in one stock, no matter how good the company is. If you decide to invest, set up a diversified mix of mutual funds, tailored to your risk tolerance and time horizon. Good Luck!

Thats a tough question. If you take the money out now you only have to pay taxes on the increase in value since the date of his death. And if you sell the Condo you can exempt 250 thousand of gain from taxes, as long as you lived in it for two years. Abbott is safer than most stocks. I would compromise and take part of it out to buy the Condo. Its also a good idea to diversify between real estate and stocks. Keeping part of it in stock it would be more liquid than a Condo, in case you needed money.

remember that your nursing Qualification will not be recognised in the USA and you will need to sit an adaptation exam and if you fail you will not be alllowed to do nursing Medical insurance will eat up a lot of your disposable income

It is foolish of you to get a Nursing education in UK and assume this prepares you for life in the USA. America has NO Socialized Health Care. It's strictly pay-as-you-go in USA for a health care plan. HEALTH CARE IN USA IS NOT FREE! USA also needs NO nurses. Too many hospitals have shut down because costs have become prohibitive, making out of work nursing staffs scrambling for jobs anywhere they can. The cost of a health care INSURANCE depends on what kind of coverage you want. The cost of prescription drugs can run thousands of dollars a week for terminal illnesses such as cancer. Immigrants do not get special priviledges when it comes to health care. If your plan does not cover the MRI and you cannot pay out-of-pocket for one, you don't get one. Simple as that. So forget thinking USA is a giant give-away for health insurance. Vision and dental are EXTRA.

Regardless of any degree you may have in another country, you have to take and pass a national nursing exam and be licensed by the state that you plan to work in. Other requirements vary by state--most also require that you graduate from an approved nursing degree program, and that you work a minimum number of hours and take continuing education courses in order to keep your license. You will also have to CPR certified., and for some jobs, ACLS certified. You can't just come into this country and work as a nurse because you have medical training in another country. A nurse's job is very different from a doctors.
