>>>looks like many teachers make a lot more than $60k...<<<

The wife of a good friend of mine just left the law to become a public school teacher in her early 50s. Why??? The pay is better and job is 9-5 with summers off. There is some trade-off in stress levels - leaving high pressure clients/partners for screaming kids and parents.

thank you for the links. nearly $60k seems close. this site says california ranks 44 of 50 states when cost of living is considered:

teacherportal.com

do you know if engineers receive overtime pay beyond their salary? if not, they are indeed underpaid in california.

what is an appropriate salary for a college degree? big question that.
