This is true. I know plenty of teachers and they all say the same thing. If they had to do it again, they would teach at a private school for the money. However, there are a few idealistic ones who don't mind the poor wages because they want to feel like they're making a difference with kids whose parents can't afford to send them to private school.

Guess it comes down to what's more important to you.
