For it's own sake, not so much any more. Getting things done, and done well - yes, for sure. That often involves research and learning new things to get the right level of quality.

Sure, that makes sense. Does society benefit when you help yourself? Does it matter if your way of doing that starts with "a burning desire to help others" or if you're just thinking of yourself and things you can control? Can I be passionate about myself and would that be so bad?
