I teach 23 hours per week at a public high school and that's already more than I want. I'm one tired meow meow at the end of the week. (maybe because I have to create all the curriculum for my 4 different kinds of classes?) Seriously, Jack, you must be inexhaustable! If you're already trying to preserve what sanity you have left, I wouldn't recommend that you make it harder on yourself. Sanity preservation is a very important thing. Do you teach the extra classes mostly after school or do you also have to work weekends? I find that the most healthy thing for me to do on the weekends is pretend that I'm not in Korea. That means no work, no hanging out with people who are difficult for me to talk to, nothing that I would normally do during the week. Just rest. You cannot put a price on your rest, even if you do need the money. So maybe you do take on the extra classes for the money, then what?? You are just one crazy rich guy who has no time to himself. If you don't mind that for awhile and have other long term goals for your money, then do as you please. I happen to be a big advocate of just chillin' instead ... Cool
