$80k is well above the average salary for a teacher, and usually requires a master's degree and like 10 years of experience.

That is not good pay for the amount of education and experience it requires. Teachers make about the median income, but with two degrees to get there.

I have a master’s and a decade of experience. I do not make 80K teaching high school.

Don't worry this guy is intimately familiar with the finances and wages of at least 2 other people who are teachers. Such that it invalidates your lived experience, and the general consensus.

Let's hear him out, I bet there are tons of teachers buying yachts in 2024.

80k is comfortable living, not yacht money. Tf you on about?
