Not necessarily

If you ask a teacher why they went into teaching, they sure as shit don't say it is for the money. And there are lots of very good teachers out there.

But if you ask a doctor why they chose their profession,well, you get many different responses.
Usually, " I could make a damn nice living looking up women's twats" or " Colons have always fascinated me and I realized there is a niche market with the boomers aging and all."

Priorities

We don't care fuck-all about education. Wait, we don't care fuck-all about educating other people's kids. So there is no money in it. The only people who go into teaching do it because they love it. Then we pay them shit and burn them out. Except for the lucky few who end up at private schools.

But fixing the damage we do to ourselves with the lifestyles we don't want to fix? That's worth some coin. So medicine also attracts the ones just looking for the money. But since the serious dough is in specialization, that's what everyone does.
