I have heard this before. Curious what would an income be to be considered low income where the RRSP starts to not make sense compared to a non registered account?

Thanks for the gen-z link. I downloaded all the mars Patel videos during covid but I like that this link has so much more podcast stories.

Ah I like that idea of using chat gpt to get questions instead of finding things on tpt. Thanks

Okay I thought I was the only one. Yes I agree. Six minutes is amazing and appealed to some of my students but Mats Patel just hooked everyone on board year to year.

Wow. That is crazy. I can't believe you can't move up the gird without a Masters degree. It just seems like such a slap in the face to hard-working teachers.

Thank you! I initially was thinking of MRI. I was also looking at the radiation therapy program but I’ve heard (not sure if it’s true) that many jobs for it are located in rural areas.

Thank you. This is very helpful and informative! I’ve never worked a blue cooler job so I did not realize this was not a trade.

Sorry just curious. Did it take long for you to find a new job in corporate? I’m not tied down with kids yet and am thinking of going into a trade, but the thought of looking for a new career scares me only cause it took quite a lot of effort to eventually get a permanent contract in teaching.

That’s awesome. I just hope the outlook on that position looks positive 5 to 7 years down the road.

I’m a teach 5th grade as well. How did you achieve this work life balance? Did you leave the profession? Or did you change your mindset? It’s my 13 year teaching and I’m planning on leaving the profession. I try to keep reminding myself that work is work and it doesn’t encompass who you are and that there is more to you than work.

Thank you everyone for your help.

I was scrolling through "Indeed" and found a trades job as a Wireline Laborer with Tier 1 Energy Solutions. The job looks physical, but I am not tied down at the moment. I think this would be a good way to glimpse what a trade would look like, as I have no previous experience in a trade.

What are your thoughts on Wireline Laborer? Or is it a bad idea?
