After reading this forum and carefully reviewing new monitors, I purchased an NEC 2690wuxi with the Spectraview II
I am using it as a second monitor.
After hours of reading and calibrating I constantly have a pink color cast.
Anybody seen this before?
Any suggestion on what I am doing wrong? Please, somebody help before I pull all my hair out.

It is hard to say without actually seeing how you are calibrating the monitor if you are actually doing anything wrong or if there is anything wrong with the hardware. Given you mention you read a lot about how to do it and what to use it would seem unlikely you are doing anything wrong.
It could be that your sensor is faulty.
What sort of monitor did u have before hand?
Its not uncommon for people coming from cheap crappy monitors to high end displays to think the picture is wrong at first because it looks (and is) a lot 'warmer' in color temperature than a run of the mill LCD (which are all pretty much way to cool) when properly calibrated.
What are you calibrating to as a matter of interest? D65, Gamma 2.2 should be your settings.
Whats the ambient lighting in the room? Open glass windows to sunshine? Solux?
Post a bit more info and should be able to get it sorted.
