Why is it a common trope that college professors and teachers are "poor"?

The available data shows the wealthiest group of people in human history are actually highschool teachers and have the highest rates of making it to 7 figure net worth. They also have some of the lowest working hours and most paid time off.

College professors too have upper tier incomes in large numbers and many own side businesses/consulting. When compared to the actual median person they're light years ahead in earnings, wealth and the working conditions.

The actual normal working age adult isn't even likely to hold a full time job in 2022.

Is it a failure to do the math correctly? Inflated/self reported numbers from loud mouths who claim they make 250k a year house flipping at bars or the 1% of the 1% of ceos pulling 7 figures for a few years in their prime in the headlines...?

I have also personally met several professors who're clearing 7 figures annually, and at least one who has a good chance of being a billionaire in a few years.

pic related, was at some point a highschool math teacher.

What makes homosexuality so common in animal kingdoms? I hypothesise it's because of a kin selection or whatever that's called. If you are a homosexual then you possibly have genetic proclivity towards it, which also means your parents and siblings also possibly have those. Even though you can't pass on your own genes, you are still helping to pass on genes that causes those proclivities by providing for your family and your kin.
How much sense does this make?

5g question

No.14344845 ViewReplyOriginalReport
i have a question for you big brains, im doing my masters thesis (im studying buildings and energy) and i had a convo with my supervisor
he told me that basically 5g is an impossibility for now because of wall insulations. apperantly the waves cant penetrate the houses well enough because of insulation, and ive never heard about this and he told me most people dont know that. does this sound true or like bullshit?
what makes insulation special compared to other materials is its low heat conductivity and high porosity, does it have to do with that?

To Keep Students in STEM fields, Let’s Weed Out the Weed-Out Math Classes

>All routes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) degrees run through calculus classes. Each year, hundreds of thousands of college students take introductory calculus. But only a fraction ultimately complete a STEM degree
Are you doing your part to 'weed out' math which is preventing our brightest minds from getting STEM degrees?
