Has anyone left the career of teaching? (job, investment, quit)

[windchime]

Has anyone left the career of teaching? How long did you teach for? What was your reason for leaving and what did you do instead of teaching?

A relative of mine taught for a few years, quit and took a job at UPS. He couldn't be happier. I know someone else that taught for a couple of year, quit and become an investment counselor. Another relative of mine taught for many years, quit and become a letter carrier for the USPS. He's very happy too.
