Of course I'm doing it for the money. I don't like my work that much. (When I was younger, I used to say "Don't they realize that I'd do this for free?" But even then, I'm not sure it was really true...)
But when I was working in medical instruments, and they brought in a doctor who explained how our instrument turned a surgery that had a 50/50 survival rate into one that had better than a 99% survival rate... I was more motivated to work there, and to work well there, and not because I was getting more money. My work had a purpose. It wasn't just a job.
