[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are people in here acting like making money isn't a desirable goal? FYI if you said something like that, you MIGHT want to check your privilege. The only people who say money doesn't matter are people who grew up with it and can't imagine life any other way. These days, most highly educated professionals are expected to work AT LEAST 50 hours a week but usually more. I don't know about you, but if I'm going to spend 10 hours a day at work no matter what, I'd rather make the 500k + (extremely hefty bonus) salary rather than the 50-250k salary. [/quote] Ummm ... it's because working on wallstreet is MUCH more than working 50 hours a week. And if you're in the position to get hired by Goldman, you're in a position to find a career that is much more interesting and humane, that still pays well. That said, I am sympathetic to your general point. But there's a huge difference between a good, solid career and working on Wall Street. [/quote]
