[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're picking a spouse based on a finite metric, such as how many acorns he can collect, then that marriage won't last very long because there'll always be some smarter and quicker squirrel. If we're picking a spouse based on his work, I'd rather base it on how much passion he has in his work and whether he has vision of where he'll end up, rather than just thinking about how many acorns he can collect.  Anecdotally speaking, a great high school teacher who can inspire hundreds of future leaders will never ever come close to the salary of money hungry lobbyist for a company like Marlboro.  [/quote]

True. But if you pick a spouse who won’t collect acorns at all, that marriage will not last because it’s really stressful to have to take on all the responsibility in what should be a partnership.

Tell me again how “acorns” don’t matter when it’s winter and you have nothing to offer your children. [/quote]

There's a difference between a squirrel who won't collect at all versus a squirrel who doesn't collect as much as the next. Hence, the basis that so long as the person has a passion and true ownership of the work he does, acorns would follow.  I'm not telling people that finding an unmotivated person is OK. [/quote]
