Anthropology v/s Money

Well today I´ve got to talk about money and anthropology, I think it´s quite a theme because most of the people who doesn´t know a lot about anthropology think that if you study this you won´t get any money or job when you come out, I don´t think so but I also think that sometimes it can be difficult to earn good money. That´s why I tried not to think about how I would earn money when I got into this degree. But now that time has pass away I have learned that if you follow the steps of Tudela you can actually earned lot and lot of money, you can have a salary of two million pesos!!! Imagine!, anyway I would hate to be like Tudela, so I suppose that I will have to search for my own road. I think that something you have to have to earn good money is a magister or something like that, and it has to be somewhere outside Chile. Well this would be for the people who want to study archeology, because if you´re a social/cultural anthropology you can work without having the title of the degree so I suppose that in that case you don´t need a magister or something like that. If you want to earn a lot of money you also have to work a lot, Most of the times Anthropology isn´t like medicine where you earn money by hour or something like that, you have to win projects from the state to do your investigations, it´s more difficult.
At this time I don´t worry a lot about money I just enjoy studying what I like, and I think that until I don´t get marry or until I don´t get my own house or children the money won´t be that important, if I get enough to buy food, pay the bills and go to the cinema in time in time. With that I will be really happy. But when I have my own children and more responsibilities the money will be more important that, because at that time I will have to care about other persons who probably won´t like anthropology as I do. And my children and husband will be more important than my career.

C ya!!! take care!!
