Obsession with wealth is another problem! Robert Kiyosaki said the same thing in a different way years ago with his "Rich Dad Por Dad" book. Thing was he almost went bankrupt. Not everyone repeats the same type of work in a corporation. Those who wish to bubble up to the top create opportunities for themselves before they move up. I do not have to own my work, I may be satisfied that my contribution has played a part in the creation of something that benefits humanity (at a cost). Oh! By the way, people who have given up on their dreams, and wish to go home, may be raising kids and paying bills they don't spend, may not have the leverage to wander from country to country. It may be a generalization, but we are all not C+ players !!
