I've always said my retirement will be teaching. I'm not really the retirement type. I need something to keep me busy, keeps my mind turning, and keeps me ineteracting with people on a daily basis. But I'm also not much for institutional pressures or regulations. So by teach, I mean be a cult leader somewhere out in the middle of the desert.

Is anyone at a job they really, truly enjoy that also pays competitively (and has good benefits)? In my experience, I haven’t found anything that satisfies both. Either I love the job and I’m grossly underpaid or the job is totally mediocre but the money is great. Is it really possible to have it all or do I need to lower my standards? Maybe it’s just the way this industry is?
