This is a very interesting proposition - imagine what could happen if you paid teachers 120k!

Are there any countries that do pay teachers very highly?

Tenured teachers can become very expensive in the US, and they have significant retirement benefits. But, high pay is also in high cost of living areas.

Luxembourg teacher salaries begin at 73,700 euros (79,920 USD), http://www.wort.lu/en/luxembourg/starting-salaries-of-73-700... Germany hits second place.
