Teachers Out of Pocket Average =$593
January 18th, 2007
I have a friend named Tim who teaches at a high school near Toronto. He alerted me to this article (Teachers Spend Out of Pocket Average of $593) for some research that we are doing. It got me thinking that it might be very interesting to see what the annual out of pocket average is for church-based youth workers. So, if you have a minute comment back (or email me — chrisfol@mac.com) with your average out of pocket. I will compile the data and post in a week or so with the results.

I would probably say it is similar to what a teacher pays out of pocket. I know that I am conistenly picking up little things while I am doing my regular shopping to use in ministry, or taking something from home that I orginally bought for my own use.

No doubt… I am always taking DVD’s and CD’s and whatever else. Thanks for your comment!
