I guess the bottom line here is that I don't have any personal need for "bling bling" to validate my choice of profession.

After a life of always having everything I needed/wanted, I agree 100%. I'll take "just getting by" any day if I'm truly happy.
I have plenty of money to do the things I love but I would never say I'm incredibly happy with my life.
