All I can say is, I feel sorry for those who learn programming for the money, without being attracted to it. Most of them are gonna have a very hard time.
Don't feel sorry - the money gives them the ability to pursue their true passions, like supporting their family, and other unprofitable things.
Similarly, don't feel sorry for the wastewater treatment plant worker. He's not doing it because he's passionate about cleaning up your shit, he's doing it for the money, because he's passionate about supporting his family.
