Cr. Many states let teachers retire at 30 years. Teachers can retire in mid-50s at 50-100% of pay with healthcare covered.

It's like they're getting 50k a year in deferred compensation while they're working.

Someone paying into ss gets a guaranteed benefit until death and the return is insane compared to what they pay in. They maybe pay the equivalent of like two years of their own benefits if that. SS is the best deal ever.

This post is fucking stupid. Are teachers overpaid? Perhaps in some places, but obviously not nationally given that there aren't massive teacher surpluses. If you want to become a teach, it is pretty easy to do so (and in some places they will beg you to do it).

Contrast that with federal government workers and California police and firefighters. Are they overpaid? Obviously, because if you're white and want to get one of these jobs you sometimes need to win a literal lottery.

There are thousands of unemployed education majors that can't find teaching jobs, and tons of substitute teachers who want a permanent spot but can only get a few hours of work a week. Of course there's no "surplus" of teachers -- the definition of a teacher is somebody a school had room to hire.

Unlike every poster here who says public school teaching is a chill, overpaid profession, I’ve actually done it. I made 37k with a JD, & there’s no time to just surf the internet & gossip with coworkers. No, you’re constantly “on,” having administrators watch you, nitpick, & pile admin tasks onto actual teaching, & dealing with a constant stream of kids being assholes. It’s hell on Earth.

Most of the value in being a teacher is the pension. Thus, there is a delayed gratification problem. This is the same reason why many people don't save into their 401ks, even if they get employer match.

Teachers have modest headline salaries, but they only work 75% of the year and can retire like kings after 30 years. Many people can't think 30 years ahead.
