Why do you think most choose their profession?.

[Ted66]

I can understand that veterinarians do it because they love animals. How about lawyers, doctors, accountants, dentists and others?. Because the money is good or there is a reason behind it?.

Why did you choose yours?.

 

[Hitter]

Money comes first, then self satisfaction and lastly you can brag about it.

 

[ReservoirDog]

Because they inherited from their parents.

Money is good and get satisfaction from my job, even when times are a pain in the ass and millions at stake and sleepless nights and weekends; those times are temporary and I seek stress relief in hobbying.

I chose mine to be able to spend more time with my family. Money will come if you are good at what you do.

My mother is a vet. She loves animals. It breaks her heart every time she has to put a dog to sleep, or sees one that has been traumatized. She often regretted her career choice because she saw the worst of humanity echoed on the animals she treated, and it is heartbreaking how people treat animals at times.

Contrary to most people's expectations, doctors do not become doctors because of the money (some do, but not most). In fact, when you work through the amount of time in school with no income, salary caps, insurance and office costs, you may be surprised to know that most doctors have a real income less than many union workers on a per-hour rate over their working life!

I became a research oncologist because I knew people dying of cancer and I wanted to do something about it. Didn't give a shit about the money, just wanted to help. Part of the attraction is the challenge of doing something new, part is helping people, and part is wanting to contribute, but money never even entered my thought process while working through University for over a decade.

Now dentists, they are money grubbing quasi-doctors :biggrin2::wink2:

They make more money that doctors. At least in Canada they do.

Dentist - "Oh you have insurance? So you need XYZ, it'll only cost $5000 of which we'll put through your insurance."
Me - "Fuck off and just clean my teeth."

I didn't like working for people and knew I could do a better job then most in my field. I take pride in my work and am very customer service oriented. I was getting sick of seeing people get dicked around in my mainstream field, so I started my own business. I got into the field I am in without completely giving it away because of the opportunity for creativeness, the challenge and the "new" factor. I am not good at mundane repetitive work. My field allows for change and challenges and that was the lure for me.

For escorting, it is simply the no strings attached sex.

I don't like working for people either. I should have been born with a pussy to have the power you have :biggrin2:

Ted believe me there are lots of veterinarians who choose the profession for the money and not because they love animals. I could give you a very long list. Most high profile professions will have their share of those in it for the wrong reasons. Look at the escorting profession, could there be one with more hypocrisy, and more money grabbers,lol!
The hypocrisy lies within the fact that clients will claim to want to meet with those who will treat them like a man and not a cash machine, with those who don't bait n switch, someone who doesn't rush, doesn't up charge, etc, etc. Yet when they meet a "hottie" and she does any of those things, as long as she is good to them and "hot", she'll be praised, well reviewed and encouraged. Yet, if another who isn't as hot, does any of the same, she's put out of business.....lol. So all professions have their pro's, cons, those in it because they love their work and those in it because they love their money
Secret to life, find what you love and turn it into a profession, or at least a hobby and wake up smiling
