Thank you for clarifying. I do agree that it is expected to optimize ones career for maximum income.

Even so, an individual can often choose to push for the greater good within the confines of free market forces.

A footballer can use their image to promote organizations that do good. A SaaS owner can help their customers become more secure and efficient. Lawyers can push for better oversight and reform.

Maybe we can't all be Elon, but we can all try to improve our surroundings.

Maybe I'm too young and naive, but I think it can be done.
