Have you considered an overseas teaching gig? At least here in Dubai I hear they're always looking for qualified teachers. Based on what the cost of tuition is ($15-20K per year), I'd think the teachers would get paid pretty well. Google Dubai American Academy, American School of Dubai, Universal American School Dubai (this one has fewer American students but is American curriculum). I think the same is probably true for schools all over the Middle East, and probably worldwide. And then there are the International Baccalaureate schools which teach a different curriculum but are also probably in the market for good American teachers.

You'll will probably have to sign a contract of a couple years, but they should pay for a ticket home every year, and might even provide housing. These are questions you'd want to ask.
