Turnoi left the board to focus upon his new academic position in Switzerland and he requested that all his previous posts be deleted. I'm sure that he has legitimate reasons for that, there's a goodbye post somewhere. Some feel that he was hounded from the board, I merely feel that he had more important things to do, many of us don't post here for long periods of time for similar reasons.maybe like yourself.

As for changing careers...

Most teachers end up wanting to leave eventually for different reasons and not just in China either. Some advise banking some cash to prepare yourself for an exit, the best way out for some is to take a job in a different industry at a lower salary and work their way up the career ladder.

However, what I can tell you is that some teaching jobs don't require you to work so hard or work so many hours. It gives you the chance to 'feel the waters' and dabble in other things, if you keep it low key .

Sure education is becoming a profit making industry. So consider making profit of your own for the right reasons.
