There is no teacher like experience this is a fact.

I'm now evaluating it as a cost/benefit issue, and the costs are beginning to outweigh the benefits.2) Is it worth it to fix up the condo and be a landlord, all the while being a full-time English teacher AND dealing with a shifty HOA president who is rather passive and hands off, and who could possibly be lying and/or embezzling?  

Just don't get so wrapped up in training that you forget to jump into some deals...experience is still the best teacher.

We recently just moved from Hawaii to Maryland as I am in the Navy and she is a teacher.

The applicant that was approved is a retired teacher that is moving closer to children.  

All of this was amazing experience and helped to open my eyes to the real world of business.I grew up in a middle class family one parent being a teacher and the other working in marketing.

I have also been a teacher/instructor at the college level as well as for more "hands on" type of hobbies that require instruction and "sign-off" for an individual to "operate independently", hence my apprehension to try and tackle a deal without what I feel is either adequate training or supervision to ensure success.

Also, the teacher mentioned that passing was 75 (right), but if you got 80 then to get another state's license you only have to take the that state's portion...a little incentive to study to be a B student rather than a c+ ;-) Good luck!! 

The parents raise $450,000 a year to get a teacher's assistant in every classroom.

I once got the suggestion, "organize it like a 4th grade teacher" which probably isn't too far off the mark for what I've been doing.
