[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"So are you saying everyone should aspire to be a CEO or lawyer? Who will teach your children? Deliver your mail? Watch your children while you are at work? Pave your roads? Police the community? Work at your grocery store or favorite restaurant? Your attitude is frankly astounding, and rather frightening. "

My attitude is that if you want higher income, you need to go into a higher paying profession. If not, don't complain when you can't stay afloat. I couldn't afford to be a teacher; maybe in retirement. It's a luxury to pursue a profession you want if it's not super high paying.[/quote]

Are you for real?  If you are the same person who has responded multiple times about how you chose a high-paying profession and those did not should shut up and suck it up, I agree with the PP  you quoted;  you are frightening.

To you and the OP: many of us don't care how much you make.  My family would be considered middle class around here, but I realize that compared to most people in this country and in the world, we are very lucky to have a home, good food to eat, clean water to drink, a good education, etc.  I did all the things that the rich people on this thread are patting themselves on the back for (working hard in school, etc.), but I don't feel that I am entitled to riches and luxuries based on this.  I also prefer to have a profession that I believe helps others and contributes in a notable way to society rather than to pursue a career based purely on the hope for a high salary.  I would not condemn you for making a lot of money; I would condemn you for your obvious and misplaced feelings of superiority and your lack of basic humanity.[/quote]

I believe the word is amoral.  Breathtaking really.[/quote]
