Trust me, nobody gets a PhD in the hard sciences to make money. No offence taken. I've been out of grad school now for three years, and I'm just now making the same salary I did before I went (as an entry-level manufacturing engineer).

True, I guess I meant more like Doctors/Surgeons/Medical PhD professionals who many do go into it for the money. But the hard sciences, yeah, everyone I met going for that is doing it for the passion which I have nothing but respect for.
