I KNOW being a teacher doesn't pay a lot. But I want to be a teacher because the personal and emotional payoff is much greater than anything else I can think of.
Granted I would love to be a mechanic but I want to keep that a hobby and an interest, not a career.
Also take into consideration the fact that most teachers nowadays are retiring within the next few years. This is going to create a much larger demand for teachers, thus making wages and benefits go up (most likely anyway).
I've always lived by this: I'd rather be poor and happy, than be rich and miserable.
