[quote=Anonymous][quote]No. I’m a public health practitioner married to a journalist. So low paid for highly educated people with desk jobs, but paid way, way more than service workers, or even the average American income.

Every time I think about doing something that pays more [b]I just can’t see caring enough about it to make it through the daily grind. I’ve got to find meaning in the work itself.[/b] So because of the way I’m wired I know I wouldn’t do well in many other fields.

Do I wish I had oodles of money? Sure! But I don’t want that enough to want a different career.

I could have written this. I started in a career where I would have made more money and after five years I switched to teaching. I was born to be a teacher, loved it, and was recognized as an excellent teacher. I think you have to know who you are and what makes you happy. Money is nice, but I have had so many great experiences with people in my life and I feel like I did something important with my life. [/quote]
