DiGamma brings up a good point. It's considered a good thing to be ambitious and aim for a high salary with professions like law and especially business.
It is kind of weird that it is considered immoral to do the same in medicine!
I think it's certainly fine to have that kind of motivation (financial) to enter the medical field. It's just nice to a) keep that to yourself and then b) have another reason for being there. (Not all doctors strike it super super rich and then at that point, it would be nice to have another motivating factor to push a student through med school, through the long hours of residency, and through the everyday routine of being a doctor)
