I'm back. Actually, this conflict likely happens across many professions. The legal profession for sure. Many businesses too. I experienced the conflict in both of those worlds. It's one of the reasons that after my awakening, my views shifted to quite left of center when it comes to "capitalism" but no, I did not become a "communist" as my son once accused me of. I simply realized that profit as the holy grail is too expensive. Shortly after I awoke I was researching what Adam Smith actually thought about profit, and I posted the following thoughts in short forms and comments:
The 1%s have perverted capitalism, and worse they quote Adam Smith out of context. Smith's Wealth of Nations posited that free-markets would lead to wealth fairly distributed among the citizens based on their contribution. He saw profit incentive as initially needed for innovation but believed that as a business matured profits would decrease in favor of rising wages. Thus the wealth of a nation, not the wealth of oligarchs, would increase. We do not have free markets. We have markets twisted by laws written by lobbyists for large corporations and too-wealthy-individuals. Capitalism has been perverted into a Darwinian game of survival at the top of the food chain at the expense of others. As spiritual beings, humans are not supposed to act like animals.
It's also partially why I had this epiphany: choosing a career to support a lifestyle is ass-backwards. One should choose the career that fits whom one is at their core, and then choose a lifestyle that such career can support.
