If marine biologist are the rock stars of science then marine archaeologists may be the millionaires.
Deep-sea explorers said Friday they have mined what could be the richest shipwreck treasure in history, bringing home 17 tons of colonial-era silver and gold coins from an undisclosed site in the Atlantic Ocean. Estimated value: $500 million.

Err.. Where do marine biologist-turned-conservationist stand, I wonder?? :)
Well turtle biologist definitely puts you on the top rung of the marine biologist ladder. Sadly, although honestly, I am probably on the lower rung as I study the muddy seafloor. Conservation angle makes you Bono!
*sigh*
I think this is the "I think you're better than me" case :)
