Default How much money do string theorists make?

I am an undergrad entertaining a career in string theory. Can somebody
tell me about the salary and working conditions of string theorists?

no, it means that if you are really as "brilliant" as you claim, then
you should be
smart enough to spend 1 year to make a million dollars in the free
marketplace, and
then use your own money to study string theory. Why should we believe
you are smart enough to study string theory if you can't even beat out
the little guy to make yourself a million dollars?

Basically, if you're so smart, why aren't you rich? It doesn't take
but a year to invent something or start a business to make a million
dollars if you are smart enough.

Apart from the question whether string theory is worthless or not ...

Mark Demers doesn't understand, at all, that money isn't the measure of
everything in the cosmos. He doesn't understand that money is created
by people. And that bowing for money is beneath our dignity as a human
being. It's already in the first few of the Ten Commandments, as can be
read in the bible, Exodus 20:1-17.

3. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of
any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath,
or that is in the water under the earth:

5. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: [ ... ]
