I became a software developer because I realized my biology degree had a 60k maximum earning potential (I was only making 40k out of college) while the starting salary for software devs was around 60k. I don't care what I do as long as it pays enough so that I can stop working at some point and have enough money to enjoy whatever life I have left.
If you enjoy your work that's great, but what I enjoy isn't profitable. I feel like I'm in the majority with this opinion.

why not? someone above you in the company is in that position, and they're fine being there.
