[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I both teach full time for a combined HHI of 120k. Both from families where we are the first generation to go to college (let alone advanced degrees). I had no idea of the huge income disparity between professions. Thankful we don't have any student loan debt but wish we had the means to switch to more lucrative careers. [/quote] Now as an adult I see how my parents' lack of knowledge about the world and their inability to counsel me financially really impacted my income and thinking about jobs and the professional world. They are both high school graduates and thought that any degree was a ticket to financial security and a good income. I am highly educated but in a poorly compensated field. I wish I had picked differently but I can't alter my childhood.[/quote]
