When I was in university, I learned that I made more money as a level one support guy at the tiny MSP I worked at than my professor who had multiple awards, papers, patents, and was also some kind of bouldering champion apparently. He was an awesome person and a firm lesson that the amount of money one makes should never be used to measure the worth of a person. Also that teachers need to be paid like, a hell of a lot more.
Actually that reminds me of another guy I know. I spent a few years working at a GameStop and my store managers dream was to be a history teacher but he would have had to take a significant paycut in addition to getting a lot more schooling and certifications. Last time I ran into him though he told me he'd done it and I've never seen him happier.
