[quote=Anonymous]Age 45 in MCPS as a STEM teacher. It is hard seeing all my friends with much higher incomes. Yes, I have more flexibility in the summer. But they all work from home so that basically cancels out. I don’t know what their retirement situation is, but it seems we will work until our kids college is done. It seems like the best combo is to have one teacher and one partner in a STEM/finance field. Stable, flexible combo. If not then lots of commuting or some other set of sacrifices that is becoming less and less attractive to to working college educated adults. My wife I decided to only have one child. A lot of this was due to work and finances. I have always felt guilty about that. [/quote]
