Well, it would be interesting if you're into that. There are different types of psychologists from occupational to child so it's difficult to say if you'll get more money from it. If you're genuinely interested in it then I say go for it. Having a career is not a "job" which you should chuck in after 3 months, I think if you go for a career - it should be something you enjoy. JennyColada Posted at 11:15 am on Nov. 9, 2006 Why would someone whom works as a helper and along-side psychologists make more? Isn't that like asking if a paralegal makes more than a lawyer? Edit: Evidently parapsychology is totally different from paralegals: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapsychology All 5 previous replies displayed.
