Yeah…if you have enough “time” where you have worked out of the school system, you can buy a year….

Buy a year?*"
It is cheaper when you are younger and if you worked during your school time and summers, you can actually buy more. MrsHarb only qualifies for 1 year and change since she only worked during summers during high school and college. She went into the school system pretty much after college. Basically it’s the work time when you pay into social security.  Previous Message Previous Message to retire this year. I think she will go 3 more or go 2 more and buy a year. Previous Message
My question is why on earth do you do it?
Many more hours, much much lower pay and a general overall level of high stress. In fact I would argue being around a number of teachers this past year I would say I didn’t find many I would consider happy. (Yes I know that logic is skewed)
Yes this question is loaded in a way for my own benefit as the idea is being volleyed about.
