Well you always start from nothing, if you come from a poor family.

People in the finance field can earn 50k a year (Pounds from what I've seen, but maybe Dollars and Euro too) just for working at a bank. And the people them bankers generally provide services to are the poorer people in the world.
Bankers get paid a lot because they have a risky job. Would you wanna work at a bank that could get robbed and you might die with a lousy salary? I think not.

How can banks be robbed? Atleast in Germany robbing a bank isn't worth the fucking effort anymore, cos you would only get like a few thousand euros, not more.
The single banks dont really have much "real" cash bills.

What's the excuse for soldiers, then? They get shitty pay and their lives are at risk 24/7 and are always moving about. Banks don't get robbed that much, all they do is sit on their arse getting big dough while the only problem is that they're responsible for people's money and have to be trusted with it.

Well would you wanna be in a country that pays a banker salary to a soldier meaning fucked up economy etc? Now you're gonna say, what if they can lower the amount of soldiers they got which won't work since anyone could invade it then. Its complex since the system has to be like this. Look at US, how many soldiers do they got and how much do they get paid? Lets do an example;
$5000 a month with 15 million soldiers = $750,000,000.00, would you wanna pay this amount? It would involve more taxes, bad healthcare, bad education system, bad infrastructure since the country wouldnt be able to afford it all and if they did lower the amount of soldiers then they'd run the risk of getting attacked in any way.
You can look here, http://www.usdebtclock.org/ for more information on US debts etc. Yes i know there is more countries in the world then just US but since it has the most people in the military and is a big provider to the economy, i chose it.
Enjoy.

I was ignoring the fact that it would cost a lot, but pointing out that if a banker gets paid so much because their life is 'at risk' then why does that not apply for soldiers?

Okay yeah but they're still in much more danger than a banker and regardless of how better equiped and ready they are, there's no reason (other than the too expensive part) that a banker should make 50k a year when a soldier only makes about 20k.
