[quote=Anonymous]Because they seek meaningful work, and contributing to causes they value, instead of prioritizing money or prestige. My high IQ husband has an MD and PhD, but instead of becoming a professor at a teaching hospital, like his mother wanted him to do, he went into research and has helped advanced the field of heart disease and oncology, from the research angle. My gifted cousin had a meandering path amid various doctorates and professional endeavors on several continents, before settling into her calling at a migrant aid NGO based in Europe, that works with North African refugees. My gifted teen has no clue what she wants to do and struggles to find meaning in life. She doesn't want to grind for money. I'm sure that like my husband and cousin, she will take some time to figure it out.[/quote]
