Not one of a thousand said 'pick it for money'

When his son finished puberty, the father began career counseling: "Go where the money is. Can you live on what you love?" Twenty years later the son earns well and has a stomachache every Sunday night. When Cornell researchers asked 1,200 older Americans the same question, not one said to choose work by future earnings. They said to choose the work that makes you want to get up.
