Rekna-
I agree with that. I'm seriously considering a life in academia (very little pay) for research and the continuation of my Army National Guard military duty (very little pay). But still, if my passion was travel, and I spent the entirety of a 60 year adulthood travelling, I'd still not see everything I want. If my passion were to teach, no amount of time teaching would let me reach out to "enough" younger people. You can make your existing life much more fruitful, sure... but a few hundred extra years could make it amazing!
