Yes. The earnings depends on the traveler. You have the option of taking large, small, or little to no gaps between assignments. In some high cost of living areas, you will obviously earn a lot more. You may also negotiate a lower wage in order to increase your living allowance, which is not taxed. The problem with that is, finding short term housing/leases can also be quite expensive.

do you have any info on travelers within the same state? I have heard that there might be "dry" periods where you might not get a good traveling gig within the desired area, town, state etc.

The market fluctuates. Sometimes there's a lot of jobs in a certain area and other times there's not. Always have several options.

You cannot make decisions based on what other people think. That's not how it works. If you want to do this, you may as well go ahead. Jobs and money will follow but it is essential that we reach out to the right people. For instance, a friend of mine recently told me about how he got a job as a PT, with a placement agency called CareerStaff. You see, there are people out there to help you out but you ought to be willing to ask for it. So good luck and I hope that you make the right choice.
