I have ambitions of making the world better (not just a wish, but with ideas on how to), but I'm not doing so because I need it, but because if I'm not prepared to do it, I don't believe it'll get done, not at the rate we need it anyway. I'm sure there are tons of people with a similar attitude, we can all have our part to play.
If the world was healthier, I'd prefer doing something like making arcade games. Perhaps I'll have time for that later.

Yes. > "And perhaps you'll find someone with better ideas than yours, so their project would be a better use of your time?" Yes. As I implied before, it's not about individual glory, it's about making things better so I can enjoy doing what I want with a clearer conscience.
