How do I become a university teacher without doing research? Is it possible? Will I need a PhD?
I want to teach, I don't care about doing research.

Work at city college as math 101 prof. The shittiest college I'm personally aware of has its phys 101 class taught by a guy with a PhD currently doing research. He said to me that he's sad because his college buddy got a job at Intel and makes 10 times what he does and likes doing it even though he works 15 hours a day.

Nothing is stopping him from doing the same, if he really wanted

Community colleges. The pay is shit though, teaching is not valuable and it kind of sucks in general.

Literally the only "white" males I know at Intel are Jews who had family working there already and gave them references. If you are a white male you had to do something extremely special in your PhD to get a research position there.

Anyway I can't complain. Got a cosy position at a national lab doing what I love. Not Intel level pay, but at least I don't have any teaching duties.

You can take lecturer jobs yes. Whether or not you need a PhD depends on the offer, but it is possible

Get a masters degree. Plenty of people who teach lower level courses with masters at universities.
