Because I Study Chemistry For The Power It Gives Me

Yet another entry.

I was watching some House episodes that I have on my computer and I heard the funniest line in the history (well, at least it was funny to me and in the end, that's the only thing that really counts): "And I know that you didn't become a chem major for the money." Uhm, sorry but chances are that yes, he did become a chemistry major for the nice bucks that it gives you. Once with your B.S. in Chem degree you can get at least 90K a year... right after four-year college but that is if you play your cards right. If you strive to go further like grad school or so... think 100K a year. But then you don't need no chem degree to become a drug dealer and earn twice as much as a chemist after grad school. Not that I encourage drugs or such.

Some people also actually asked me if I'm a chem major for the cash. Nah. I wouldn't mind if I was poor like a church mouse (well, I wouldn't care as long as I had my electronics up to date and all) as long as I can sit in the lab and mix my chemicals and... let's face it, chemistry gives you that fantastically fabulously marvelous magical power and in the end, isn't power what's life all about?

PS. Ask a chem major why he chose chemistry; chances are he: a) wants the cash, b) wants power, c) doesn't know what to do with his life and just likes the subject. d) both a and b
I asked in my lab and most said either a or b or d. Me? Well I'd say b and c. It's all about the power, baby. If you gots the power, the cash will come flowing in somehow.
