Are people motivated to achive by personal satisfaction rather than money and fame?
Some definitely are! For example, those involved in medical research which seeks to find cures for serious ailments afflicting others can only be primarily ascribed to a desire to help the unfortunate and the satisfaction they derive from doing so. Most of these men and women in general receive few accolades from outside their research circles and the medical community as a whole. They certainly don't receive remuneration commensurate with their contribution to society. Some researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas may earn salaries in the six figure range, but they are peanuts compared to many professional athletes, who earn undeserved millions of dollars in salaries, and essentially contribute nothing of lasting value to society.

most people chase money, complain about how bad their job is, then spend all the money
Reply:The answer is `definitely yes`... I am sure about that... But you have to prove my theory by giving examples. I mean, why would famous people like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise be still in the entertainment business? Because, they are motivated by success, by breaking new records. They have money, they have fame, so why are they still trying their best?
