"Oh My, I'll Be Teaching Until I'm 80" - The American Teacher's Disappearing Retirement

Boston, MA - America's public and private school teachers are waking up each day to find their pensions, often invested in failing Wall Street firms, are dwindling and disappearing.

While rewarding, teaching has never been one of America's high paying jobs. The vast majority of teachers work hard for years with the understanding the pensions they are earning will allow them to have a reasonable retirement in their golden years.

"That's one of the big long-term motivations for being a teacher. You don't get rich, but your future is reliable and your work is rewording. Now suddenly, with the problems on Wall Street, millions of America's teachers are wondering if that retirement fund will be there in the years to come," said Dr. Kathie Nunley.

Nunley along with business expert Kevin McCormick have authored a new book for teachers: "The Successful Educator's Guide To Earning Extra Income: How to use your talents, skills, and intelligence to make money in the time outside of your school day." The book is $19.95, published by Brains.org.

Nunley and McCormick, both teachers who built sizeable businesses, are advocating a pro-active approach, showing teachers how to start their own small businesses in the time available outside their teaching days.

The book details how teachers can take inventory of their skills, education, talents, and loves to create an in-demand product or service line. Then teachers use inexpensive operation and promotion methods to expand their business and their profits.

"Starting your own business, then intelligently growing it, is the time-tested American way to grow you income and provide for a reliable retirement. Once your business is up and running, you are the boss and you can't be fired or downsized," McCormick said.

Kevin McCormick is a syndicated business columnist whose work has appeared regularly on AOL, Staples.com, and thousands of web sites and print publications. Dr. Kathie Nunley is the founder of Help4TEachers.com, a popular producer of training curriculum workshops for teachers, operating in thousands of school districts in the US, Canada, and over seas.
