  I am not a scientist because I wanted to become rich…..if i wanted two homes I would have become a politician 🙂 and if i wanted to earn millions of pounds a week I would have become a footballer (if i had the talent).
  
  I became a scientist to learn…and if i can help others learn then that makes me happy.
