a move to MOVE!

recently attended a chrarity event....during the introduction of the charitable organization, the speaker mentioned about a person who after successfully completing his graduate education from a reknowned institution went back to his country to join a prestigious institution there as a faculty so that he could parallely serve his countrymen and work for the good cause.....but then eventually left his job to devote full time and energy to work for the charitable organization and work at the grass root level to bring about a change.....
and now i just cant stop thinking...did that guy did right? i know there are very few who are so noble to go back and strive hard to make some positive difference in society...
is his talent being wasted?
or is it that we do need people of such calibre and vision to work for people?

arent the resources he utilised for his higher education wasted because of this move?
Or is it the best utilization of the resources? As ultimately we want to make a better world around us.

could he have done better by sticking to his profession and help for e.g. in monetary terms?
Or is it that there is no derth of money but only the good will, selflessness is missing?
