If $$ were not the consideration. Trout fishing in Montana. I live in Mn. and teachers don`t make anywhere near the figures quoted by someone, Hi School 60 or 70 K a yr no way, and we have some of the top 3 or 4 highest test scores in the country. But yes a good portion of them do have an altruistic outlook. My Daughter has a PHD, and she spends half her free time studying and writing. It`s an ongoing thing. If money were the ONLY goal how about a Defense Attorney for Pro athletes?
