Another problem with focusing primarily on money when selecting a career is that it ignores the notice that making money is not an end in and of itself, but rather a means of obtaining material goods a| services and of attaining important goals-such as providing security for oneself and ones family lifelong learning, or freedom to travel or to pursue hobbies. Acknowledging the distinction, one may nevertheless select a career on the basis of money-since more money can buy more goods and services as well as the security, freedom, and time to enjoy them. Even so, one must strike a balance, for if these things that money is supposed to provide are sacrificed in the pursuit of money itself, the point of having money-and of ones career selection-has been lost.
In conclusion, economic gain should not be the overriding factor in selecting a career. While for a few people the single-minded pursuit of wealth may be fulfillment enough, most people should, and indeed do, temper the pursuit of wealth against other values, goals, and priorities. Moreover they recognize that money is merely a means to more important objectives, and that the pursuit itself may undermine the achievement of these objectives.
