Well said Jackie, most people don't go into if for the money (although it can be pretty good!), I certainly am not!
It's a tough profession and very physically demanding, not to mention the emotional and psychological effects it can have on you.
Though I would say it's 10 times more rewarding than law- my family is awash with lawyers, judges, magistrates etc and they all find it really hard work - incredibly long hours, no social life and repetitive. The money is the only plus point!
