It could relieve stress for the family.
To me a vocation is something you are called to do, usually to benefit mankind. We shouldn't just be in it for the money. There are other, more remunerative professions, but not with the personal rewards of caring for the sick, the hurting, those in mental anguish , and those near death or dying. Being there to hand a new Mother her baby , and comforting the most recently bereaved. Seeing a soldier WALK out of Rehab . The rewards are not always the kind you take to the bank, but they ARE real. And who do YOU want at your bedside ? Someone who is just a good technician, or a man or woman who shares your pain and celebrates your joy? That is a nurse with a vocation.

There are many things they could use it for. The most obvious would be for a household budget. Members could also use it for their personal budgets. They could use it for other financial aspects of their lives. They can also be used for anything mathematical, so it could be used for work and homework by the members of a family. It can be used to do simple graphics and building charts that they could use.
A vocation and a career are not mutually exclusive. A career is the job-path that one chooses for oneself, and a vocation is one's calling. So your career choice may be to be an artist, but if you hate doing that job, it is not also your calling. However, if your chosen career is to be a businessperson and you love to do that job, then it may also be your vocation. Similarly, you may have a career and a separate vocation. Perhaps you have a job, but your real vocation is the volunteer work you do on the weekends. Vocation is also typically used to describe the choice that some make to become a priest, nun, or deacon in the Catholic church.
They can be used to keep track of family finances like the running costs of their home, earnings and savings
To some extent, yes. If this strong ties is used accordingly and for the benefit of everyone. For example, by being generous to the relatives or by giving the relative a sense of belonging. On the other hand, this strong ties with the family, doesn't give a member of the family license to make revenge to the enemies of his family.
Benefit is the verb form of beneficial. Benefit can also be used as a noun.
The 'guardian' vocation is the one your character starts with, and only exists for the intro section, before your character loses their wings and halo, and becomes Minstrel class. There's no way to 'fix' it per se, because it is not broken. A character only holds that vocation for the intro, as above. If a hacking tool is used to change back to it, then problems will arise, the vocation hasn't been designed to be played for any further part of the game after that. It has no skills, no stat/level progression table, and an action replay simply can't add that in.
