The focus on money is THE cultural meme of the 21st century.
Do you ever hear of a basketball / baseball / football pro who turned down a multi-million deal? Or an actor for that matter. Nobody questions why they don't play because of their passion for their sport.
In practical terms, if you want to live where the career opportunities are, you need a sizeable income just to stay in place. They (the greedy capitalists) want you to work to live. Of course, the "leaders" don't manage because of their passion. They demand ever increasing salaries.
