What have you seen that would lead you to believe that?
My own experiences with open source suggest that no one would stick around for very long if they were motivated by fame or wealth. Being a FOSS maintainer seems to be a constant exercise in dealing with people whining at you for not fixing their problems for free, not something that brings any significant personal attention and certainly not something that provides a sustainable source of income.
