Salary of a Paralegal?

Question

How much money could I expect to earn as a Paralegal? I've been thinking about going back to school to finish training after my youngest is old enough for DayCare. I want a good, respectful job that will enable me to support myself and my four children. I'm definitely smart enough, and better yet, I'm eager to learn as much as possible. Would this be a good career choice??

You may make more money as a Court Reporter and find that the hours are better for raising children.  Careerbuilder.com has a salary calculator that will show you how much you should be earning for what career, etc.  Good Luck!
