You are confusing 2 meaning of motivations:
- the one meaning "the stuff that will get you involved";
- the one meaning "the stuff that you'll want to get".
The first one will drive you enthusiasm to work, your professionalism, the quality of what your produce and your loyalty. It's a "motor" kind of motivation, and money can't buy it. Only a sense of purpose can.
The second one is just bound to the reality of life : you need money for food, shelter, logistic, health, hobbies, then a growing family, and an evolving lifestyle. This will make you choose something. It's more a "motive" kind of motivation.
You can get a lot of people with only the second one. You can get some people for some time with only the first one. But to get the best, and for them to stay, you need a balance of both.
