Miss Havisham's payment for Pip ultimately comes in the form of monetary compensation for his years of service as Joe's apprentice. Pip appears to be destined to become a BLACKSMITH, but he cannot forget about Estella, even with the advice of his female friend, Biddy.
The pivotal turning point in Pip's life comes in his fourth year of apprenticeship when a well-known London attorney named Mr. Jaggers informs them that Pip has been endowed with "great expectations" -- he will be provided with the necessary fortune and upbringing to make himself a GENTLEMAN. While Mr. Jaggers specifically states that Pip's benefactor will not be revealed to him yet, Pip believes that Miss Havisham is behind this, which is further strengthened by the discovery that Jaggers is Miss Havisham's lawyer.
