lol.... nus offered me 7500/mth for tenure track - assistant prof...

outside private companies offered me 8400 - 10500 for analyst roles.

prior to my doctorate in STEM, i have 3years working experience.

Ended up choosing tenure track cos I have a pool of sec/jc kids that I am teaching tuition - i can take home around 1k/week (h3 kids I charge 110/hr)

Its been 6 months since i made the decision, for now 0 regret. only regret is trying to research and publish better papers to compete with all the oversea smartass.. ==
