Im 23 just started working, but I've fantasized about exiting to teaching maybe in retirement or earlier..what're you teaching? Do you know if you're dealing with "honors" level or general? Any fears? For example, how will you react to disinterested students that, no matter what, won't share your enthusiasm
Best of luck OP! Having excelled at one field, we can all hope that you’ll also excel at teaching, and have a great positive impact on the lives of the kids you teach. My one word of caution would be to practice humility. You will have a different perspective that hopefully will complement those of seasoned educators, and you may (or may not) be treated more deferentially for it. But keep in mind you’ll have a lot to learn yourself as you embark on this next chapter.
Yes, A1’s comment was rubbish. If he gets to Senior MD level, he’ll come to realize the wisdom of humility. OP, being an OG, does, I suspect.
Soooo..you were getting paid $1.6 million?
You were making $1.6M? At Accenture?
After all...this IS the partner bowl
I think we are overusing “weird flex but ok”. Exhibit - this post!
Thanks and yes I was a Senior MD, with stock options I did well
Could be a partner.
A Partner at PwC, I know who has been a Partner for 20 odd years, is quitting to go to teach. So could be that OP has quoted the right numbers, nothing to be sarcastic of, K1
Weird flex...but ok? You’re doing the right thing.
Congrats!! Teachers who want to be there are the best.
Proud of you. Fantastic way to give back.
So you made 1.6m before? Bet u saved a lot
👍
Congratulations! Maybe I’ll join you soon!
I am so glad I’m not alone on this! I took a severe pay cut as well and my quality-of-life score and level of happiness has skyrocketed! Good for you 0P and I wish you the very best in your future for next year :-)
What was your number?
What made you decide? Why teaching? Why high school?
Congrats, OP! Which subject? Are you going to your local school district?
Awesome! Congratulations. This is actually a goal of mine as well. Very inspired, OP!
I hope you're not teaching math
Why do you hope that? Not following...
