I'm 2.5 years into my 3 year contract. Today I was offered to be re-upped for another 3 years as mine expires next August. It's nice; I have had such a horrible experience with internships this semester that I was a bit concerned I wouldn't get the offer. It's also kinda sad to sign up for the same pay for six years in a row... but without US taxes the pay is better than I'd be making back home now or three years from now.
With a few outside teaching gigs like I have this year I could could leave here in 2014 with everything - all debts, the house, the student loans, everything paid off... and some money to spare. That's a world that is hard for me imagine.
I have a job with an incredible amount of time off. I get paid to teach classes that are (for me) easy to teach. I get paid well. Yes, I can grumble about not getting a raise... but, really? It's a pretty sweet life.
