As a lawyer who IRL knows mostly other lawyers, though, I must say this is not a very common motivator.
Ha! No, I expect a large paycheck must figure into many people's motices. And of course, for Sam it looks like the complete opposite of everything he grew up with -- white-collor, working with his mind and perhaps his voice, on the right side of the law, etc.
I forget that kind of thing-- because when you study law from an academic perspective, "what does this do?" or "what could people do with this?" is the big question.
to me, Sam seems less driven to set things right in general than his brother
I know I used to think the same, but I can't tell, right now, whether that's mostly because that's how he was when we met him in S1 -- when he was completely focused on himself, and on the task he's set for himself.
