<p>Hi, I guess you could say I'm a pretty hard-working student, taking challenging courses in high school. However, I've been doing a lot of thinking recently about the reason why we pursue high level careers (medical careers, law careers, etc.). I mean, our society always holds the basic virtues of humility, selflessness, and compassion in high esteem, so why is that we pursue such professional careers? I mean, if your reason is for the money element, they that would be directly contradicting the values mankind and society value. I guess this is more of a question I've had lingering for some time. </p>
<p>Just looking for some opinions.</p>
