Agreeing with what you said as well.
I think (as the user 'grecy' mentioned in another place) that as a population, programmers are in a relatively unique position. They (we) can be in a situation where there are a lot of clear opportunities to make more money given more time investment (that can't be simply said for a coroner or a florist for example) AND having it being a lot of money. Couple that with that that it's true from a relatively young age (out of college) and it gives you some pretty interesting (blessed) challenges.
