I’m actually a special education teacher. I work with students with disabilities, such as Autism, Down Syndrome, and Cerebral Palsy. It can be challenging, but also rewarding at the same time.
I’m able to afford the hobby because my dad left me a sizable amount of money when he passed away in 2012. I make a good salary as a teacher too.
Being a teacher in New York definitely has it’s perks:
* I have a great pension
* Great retirement
* Summer’s off
* School holidays and vacations
* Time to travel
* I can make extra money on the side tutoring
Even though I may not make as much money as some people on here from my job alone, I have no complaints, and still able to enjoy the hobby.
