Agree with Data10’s post 51. Why shelter any prospective student from the economic realities of a given profession? It is better to know the realities before making a life decision. And even if it is only one person’s account, it may make some think and take into consideration issues never thought of before. Best to go into a career with eyes wide open rather than disillusionment in the end. Besides, if a book can change one’s course in life, perhaps that wasn’t the best course for that person to begin with.
