@@OceanPancake Ooh thanks! Missed this one

​@@pseud420it wasn't recommended much

Oh I was! Instead of cafe minimum wage I was happily scuba diving with sharks

Get a job in diving? You can volunteer to get started

Im already an instructor - most instructors cant afford the time to train. Most competitors either have off season where they make money and/or have remote work/and or wealthy or already retired. It’s a very privileged crowd in general. @@OceanPancake

I'm sorry to hear that

@@OceanPancake Thank you. This year I have been involved in 2 Auto Accidents. 1st wasn't my fault. 2nd? Not entirely my fault. As the person who hit me was Cited. My job Transferred me to a location 3 times the distance. Making less money.

I definitely am! Proud of my eighteen year old self for making that choice

Where are you based now? Australia is a hard place to migrate to, but it's so beautiful

​@@OceanPancake we live in the USA. South Carolina more precisely.

In America? I am talking about Australian dollars 🦘

Did you??

@@OceanPancake yeah was beautiful. Visibility was stunning

A lot to explain in a minute (check out the full video on my channel) or the description of the short. But summary : In Australia I predominately got offered day rates between $180-$250 a day. But this could be good for short days, but frequently the days lasted 10-12h making it a lot less good. Last place I got offered a job was easily 13h days for 240$ a day. Cambodia payed by commission, around $20 per diver or then around $60 per course I signed a diver up for. That was pretty good as cost of living was very low, but I had to depend on my own savings to travel back and forth. In Comoros, I was paid a monthly salary of 1000 euro. Which was pretty good consider food and accommodation was included.

Cambodia was commission based :)

@@OceanPancakelook, I get it’s a bit difficult to squeeze in but maybe include the topic in what you’re talking about next time please

About $40/hr

​@@lavernemarchione8774 where did you get $40 per hour? That's a great rate :)

@@Fran--kie_Editzz this is an introductory short which actively links to the full video. maybe don't be lazy and learn to follow a link instead of being entitled on the internet.

What are you do?

@@WRESTLINGWITHCOLBY Retail auto parts

This is in Australian dollars though! So not as strong as the USD

@@OceanPancake US Dollars aren't as strong as they once were. If I work 8 Hours, I earn $128 before Taxes.

It's the best place I've dived :)

That's very true, I found that after several years diving really hurt my back while working inside has allowed me to heal. I do not get to get paid for diving anymore though!

Watch the video💀

Bro got that 3 sec attention span, idk if he'll be abt to read all this

I mean like everyone knows that the ocean needs help with all the polution and the coral reefs

Very true, but people are also tired of the negativity and bad news. That's why I wish I could be sharing lots of positivity. :)

Think it's important to show the reality underwater

Really great question! When I started teaching diving, I never thought about my retirement and until quite recently. I have been working as a teacher so that contributes to it now, but I have a lot left than many colleagues due to traveling for diving. I wouldn't exchange the experiences of teaching diving around the world. Would you lose your Swiss citizenship / residency?

How old is your son? 12-14 year old can get their junior rescue card, so would probably be good to wait until he is able to do his full adult one. Dive master and instructor is only possible from 18 anyway, so may as well space out the certifications. Does he want to be a professional diver?

@@OceanPancake , he’s 14. Don’t know if he wants to be a professional diver but he’s really loving it right now. Thanks for the reply.
