Poor Environmentalists!

I mean...literally poor!

I was checking out some job postings for my field and oh my goodness, the salary range is from $23k to $30k a year. And the $30k is for those with a MS Degree. I don't have that...yet! So I am thinking, should I go back to school again and get a MS Degree because (heck!) of the salary raise?

I already imagined the expenses...rent...car loan...food...taxes...tithes...and no shopping. Absolutely none or extremely minimal. On the other hand, actuaries (like Calvin...=.=") are entitled to a starting salary of about $40k a year. That is twice what I get paid with the same level of qualifications! Gah!!

Now I know why they choose what they do for the money. For the money dammit! I should've been "smart" to work for money instead for passion. Hmm....maybe not.

But ugh, don't you think I should get paid a little more? Like $30k a year at least? There should be some perks at least for trying to save the world right?
