Anybody that goes into any field for the money is doing it for the wrong reasons and will be very unhappy when they have to wake up each morning and go to work.

I don't know where you get your information (maybe guessing that pharmacists just count pills?) but Pharmacists do a ton of work and also work their fannies off in college with 18-22 hours per semester of work...and that's to get done in 6 years! Most pharmacists know more about any medication than any doctor...it's their specialty.

My son is going to study engineering and has known this is his passion since age six. He will come right out and tell you, he does not care if he makes 30G a year of 60, he wants to be an engineer. And THAT is why you should study a field...it should be an interest, a passion. If you do it just for the pay, you have a mightly long life ahead of you.
