I am 22 and hang out around some places in town with kids my age. Always a different group of kids there, all walks of life. I usually ask them about what college they want to go to and what career they're aiming for. Not like I am the judge of this, but it's awesome to see that about 8/10 of them are GENUINELY excited about their life. They are so pumped for the jobs they are going into, and that is a rare thing (Or so I thought!).

However, nearly 9/10 of them say "I don't care about the money".

Now, no matter how much you like something, you need to live. Not that they'll be broke, but they literally explain it to the point of saying - I have NO idea how much I'll be making, like... not even a ball park figure, completely clueless. It's not just that they don't know, but they do not care about how much they'll be living off of. There is also a huge emphasis on "I don't want to be rich", as if it's a negative thing.

What's up with this? It's awesome to see they love what they're doing, but I kid you not, 9/10 of them completely disregard how much they'll be making. How can you completely disregard it? I'm not saying be greedy, but maybe just aware to sculpt your lifestyle?
