You have to ask yourself a single fundamental question...Why?

Curiosity and knowledge. Humanity's defining characteristic is the drive to be insatiably curious about damn near everything, we have an overwhelming urge to obtain as much knowledge about something as we can.

If you care to dispute it, then why did you bother learning anything you learned that doesn't earn money in some form or another, bovine boy? The satisfaction of understanding the subject, that's what your curiosity drive does for you. If it didn't, all you'd be is nothing but a cattle farmer with tunnel vision. That's pretty limited knowledge for billions of people to draw from & expand upon, don't you think?
