[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got an adjunct professor job teaching college with a CPA and master's degree - teaching accounting and finance. I worked FT in the mid-1990's and made $23k a year. Yah! It was my dream to teach college, and I did it. But you know what, I found that I really wanted to get back to solving real life problems for clients, and I went back to public accounting. [b]Now I make $160k and can't imagine I would be making that teaching college[/b]. I moved to corporate tax though for better work-life balance. I too looked into a PhD program. I mentioned to my dh that we could move to university housing at U. of MD college park so I could get a PhD, and he almost started to cry. [/quote] Actually you could make more than that if you were a tenure-track faculty member in Finance or Accounting. But the job is not mainly about teaching any more. [/quote]
