I have a friend who has been looking towards Naturopathy as a profession.
He is completing his science courses now.  He is wondering how much might 
an individual make during the first years starting out.  Everyone is 
encouraging him to go into debt on school loans but he is wary of that.
Of course, this will vary by region.  Can anyone give any ballpark numbers?

The second part of this question is that initially my friend was very 
interested in traditional Chinese medicine.  However, he was told the 
acupuncture/tcm license will not tranfer out of State.  I can understand 
that you have to take a test for each State but what about the training?  
If you study in California and test in Arizona or Nevada (or anywhere 
else for that matter) can you practice?

Thank you for any assistance.
