Such posts really put me off.
All of them are well settled in jobs and could have lived a life without any worries about the world. But instead they chose this virtuous path.
--ROTFL......
My dear, virtue is the humanity's second most farcical word. I believe they do such things for one or more of the following reasons.
1. It is a good way to make money(as good a reason as there can ever be).
2. They want to shag their ego(can't think any reason can be nobler than this{no sarcasm here.. i really mean it})

Life, as seen from the eyes of a hopeless narcissist. A true story of one man's journey through life's little pleasures and pointless struggles; a man whose last friends died 65 million years ago; a man who believes evolution has taken a step back after Velociraptors...
This is the inspirational story of his life, his experiences, joys, sorrows, women and dinosaurs; his sometimes hilarious, sometimes tragic escapades and his one true love: himself.

Virtue is the second most farcical word ... I thought it was the first.
None of us are doing it for point 1. And IMO, doing it for 2 is a natural human trait (or for that matter even for 1).
To borrow the Nilu-copyrighted phrase, "masturbation of ego" is a very apt description in that such acts can be performed without appreciation from others i.e. self-appreciation here is far more pertinent than fame (seeking of which which I don't say is bad either).
Precisely my point sundar: That's why I didn't say that they do it for appreciation from others.
Point to be noted here is that i didn't get irritated by these people doing it. The survival of the society deems that someone must do such things. What put me off was this statement:
But instead they chose this virtuous path.
Hope u get my point.
Ya, I do. Btw, a minor grammar correction in my previous comment, a sentence there should read as "none of us is ...".
