When I was 22, I laughed at anybody that was thinking about teaching as a career
When I was 32 I was making twice as much money as a teacher and laughing at them
When I was 42 I was making 4 times what a teacher was making but working 80 hours a week and missing my kids growing up
When I was 52 I was making about the same as teacher half my age, but I was still working twice as hard
I am 62 and wish I had gone into teaching, I am making less money than when I was 32, I am no where near retiring and i will probably die at my desk.
nice pay, nice benefits, holidays, vacations and summers off with your kids - congrats on a good career choice. |
