That's a good point- we need people like this to do real jobs that have a positive impact on society. The problem is that the finance sector is far more rewarding and lives in a world of it's own making money out of thin air. Now teachers, nurses and doctors etc. aren't the kind of people that enter these professions for the money, but at the same time these days their goodwill is being exploited and they are getting paid less and less in real terms whilst having to work longer hours. Honestly I wish it wasn't this way, but whilst I was not in a job as noble as that of a nurse, I was fed up of effectively being punished for trying to make an honest contribution at what I did.
