But when I as a plumber get home at night and think of the day's work, would I have done something worthwhile? (Not that I have anything against plumbing or painting). The Irrlicht library let's us create beautiful things. It is standing on the shoulders of others that humankind progresses. It is not going to change the world, but it is a legacy nevertheless. What legacy has the house painter or plumber left humankind? And don't forget Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Mark Shuttleworth, and even Linux Torvalds who have done well for themselves. So whatever profession one is in, if one loves it, and is good at it, one will be successful. And there are programmers in the defense and space industry who earn a lot of money, deservedly so. I think for the programmer it is to become the best in your craft, and if you are amongst the best, sooner or later you will reap the benefits, if not monetary, then in legacy.[/quote]
