-If you join the mafia and are a hitman and kill someone for money its known as the worst kind of crime and if you get caught you probably get incarcerated for a very long time.
-If you join the military and get sent out to war and kill certain people for money (you do get paid to be in the military, after all), it's more than likely you'll be treated as a hero to the people back in your country.
The moral and logical contradiction there just pisses me off and makes me kind of depressed at the same time that most people don't make the connection (I didn't either until it was pointed out to me).
To answer your question though, I think it's wrong and I doubt I would do it for any amount of money.
