It's really not about the money. It's just about educating yourself.

But I was going to be a teacher my entire life, so I wasn't counting on money to much.

But these days there are a lot of younger people who would like to go into teaching but don't because the economic opportunities are sometimes elsewhere.

Surveys show that many talented and committed young people are reluctant to enter teaching for the long haul because they think the profession is low-paying and not prestigious enough.

I strongly believe that more money needs to be spent in the classroom.

I think teaching should be a vocation, and they should be paid more for it.

Given the professionalism of Michigan teachers, I think they're not teaching because of the financial rewards.

The education system should teach us about money; it's an incredibly big subject. I run into people all the time that don't have the first clue of what they should do about money.

That just doesn't make sense, that government should be making money off students.
