You think James Harden wanted to make less money? FUCK NO, HE WANTED A MAX CONTRACT, OKC said SEEYA.

Lebron went to Miami becaues FL has no Income tax and he would get more endorsement money in a bigger market=$$$$$$

Albert Pujols left St Louis to go MAKE DAT MONAY

Doctors are noble people, but you are completely ignoring the costs associated with being great. Doctors make lots of money FOR A REASON.

You know why im in IT? Its not because i love it, its because it fucking pays and affords me the opportunity to go do WHAT I LOVE (vacations, sporting events, etc).

Blank is saying well, that doctor can only have 9 ferraris instead of 10 so "X" can have health insurance. Its a retarded statement, its complete BS, and its stereotyping people he has no idea what they had to do to ge tin their position.

Do you think the best heart surgeon in the world just woke up 1 day and said "yeah, today ill be a millionaire".
First of all, I never said doctors shouldn't be well compensated. I was only replying to your comment that money is the motivator for greatness and that being rich is actually the cause of greatness. You think Lebron would have been a heart surgeon if he was only paid 300k a year to play basketball? Did you choose IT because you couldn't possibly make more money anywhere else? Everyone wants to be paid as much as they can but to ignore all the other factors in the equation is absurd. People often choose passion, lifestyle, family, location, etc over a bigger paycheck. People who would still do what they do even if they weren't paid are the usually the ones who become great, not the ones who would ditch their work the minute they found something that paid better.

I don't care what blank said. I was replying to one specific part of your post, not his.
