The benefit an individual person gives to society is the amount of money the society is willing to trade for the person's services.

<p>I disagree, I don't think that the "benefit" (defined:To be helpful or useful to.) a person "gives" to society is the amount of money given to that person. I think a school teacher is far more "benefit"ing to society than what society is willing to pay them.</p>
