      I’m pretty sure I could make a nice dent in that million pounds – but if you consider that I already do a job that helps cure people, maybe you would believe me if I said I would choose the second option. It’s only money after all – although I would like to have my own boat!

      If I help somebody, they may one day help me. It is an investment much greater than the rate banks give 🙂

      As a medical engineer I have already made that choice really. I could have chosen to be a banker and made lots of money (they love to hire engineers), but instead I chose to be an engineer and help to make the world a better place. Hopefully I will invent something during my career that can save 1,000,000 lives that would be very exciting!

      Cure people for sure not only will you save so many lives but eventually you prob make that much money anyway. So it really is WIN WIN.

      I’ve never been that motivated by money. I would prefer to feel like my work helped someone.
