A decision for a job isn't necessarily only about money. Do you feel it's valuable? Do you WANT to do it? Is it safe? Lots of stuff. So it really depends a lot on you and all the side conditions. In Germany, as a school teacher, you won't become rich, but you live a financially comfortable and safe life. So there you would have reason to think: Well, I love children and teaching and I'm fine; do I really need more? In the USA, as far as I heard, teachers get bad pay and often have to work one or two side jobs to get along. In that sort of situation, you might think: Well, I may love children, but I'm directly facing old age poverty or an early death because of insufficient health insurance, so... better go for a better paid and less loved job. How well off are teachers in India?

8k what? It probably depends on the country, too: In Germany teachers get paid well, in the USA... not so much.

At least in my country, teachers will never earn as much as devs. Devs belong to companies which have variable wages, schools tend to be government funded and can't afford big wages
