Sure if money is what you want to optimize for, that's the route to take. For me it was always more about the passion in building things, money is nice but IMHO other things are more important.

I'm pretty confident that most of the young people optimizing to get into the very top schools, are optimizing for $$.

Perhaps to some extent some are optimizing for social class (staying in the one they grew up in).
