I'm not sure if you're at all closely related to anyone in the teaching profession, but my father was one of the best high school math professors in my county and I've met countless people throughout the years who have told me how he had completely changed their lives and their perceptions on life by being a real-world teacher as well as one in the class room. He's retired now and when I considered the possibility of becoming a Calculus professor he told me he would never allow me. Now I'm not certain where you get you're figure, and to be honest I'm not certain what my father made, but believe me life was never an easy ride and as an instructor, a counselor, and a slave to the Kentucky education system $40G a year comes nowhere near to what he deserved in salary.
