He said the majority of teachers who’ve opted to retire early did so for financial security reasons. He said these people still had an awful lot to offer but are now consigned to the scrapheap.
“Did I want to go? No I didn’t,” he said.
“I was teaching for 35 years and I loved it. I found teaching very rewarding. It kept me young and it kept me disciplined. If kids did well and passed their exams there was a satisfaction in it.”
- I’m bored silly but retiring early was a no-brainer, says Spillane, Independent.ie, January 07 2017.
2. Asian-American singer-songwriters Clara Chung and David Choi have been gaining a presence on YouTube.
“If I didn’t have YouTube, I wouldn’t be here. I would still be doing music but no support, no tour, nothing I’m doing now,” said Choi, who ended his Southeast Asia and Australia tour in July and performed in both Korea and Japan in December.
Chung and Choi aren’t mainstream artists, but they have succeeded in creating their own brand without a major label or budget, and big companies are starting to take note.
Last January 2011 TC Helicon of TC Group Americas, a company that makes vocal harmony processing products, sponsored Far East Movement, the first Asian-American group to land No. 1 on the Billboard Top 100 chart and iTunes with their hit single “Like a G6.”
Recently, TC Helicon added Chung to their list of sponsors. “We just saw a young, fresh artist,” Laura Davidson, 32, marketing manager of TC Group Americas, said of Chung.
