His fiancee makes in the mid 30's as a high school math teacher!! Maybe he should have gotten that education degree!

In a few years, he'll probably make more than his fiancee. Most teachers--and public employees as a whole--only get small raises each year that are more like COLAs than actual bumps in salary. I started out making about the same amount as my friends who became teachers, but now I make about considerably more because of the private sector. That, to me at least, is better than getting summers off.
