I have a cousin going to school there and he says natives are assholes to white people. He could just a dick to begin with though

It's 100% true. My step brother moved to Hawaii, and he is dark enough to pass for a native, was treated like shite for a while.

Did 3 years there, we were makin 150k, much of it U taxable. Couldn't imagine living on 60k tho

I live here, dont recommend it. Pays low and the education is poor. Manti, Mariota, Obama of course, Max Unger all went to private schools. Unfortunately, so do my kids at $20k per year!!!! I have 3 kids

I went to Punahou (60's) when we lived there. I cannot believe how high the tuition and expenses are now.

My question would be what kind of environment exists in the schools. If you are teaching in an intercity type places where discipline is out of control and no support from the administration, hell no !!
But if you are in a decent situation, get a couple of friends, share expenses and have at it. You only live once.

After spending a week in Hawaii last year, I would say absolutely not.

Obviously a beautiful place, but the separation in classes is extremely and painfully obvious.

3 generations under one roof is the norm, and it is a damn small roof.

You would also be required to teach a lot about traditional (and I think foolish) native culture as the native Hawaiians try vainly to make sure "their" story doesn't fade away.

Also, you aren't spelling it right; it is Hawai'i.

The native Hawaiians are basically the fat, stupid welfare trash of Hawaii. It's sad, actually.

But that said, if you like tan, beautiful women, Hawaii is a great place to be.
