Interesting thread.

I would say most can't or won't adjust to a life with a "normal" income.

A few years ago, I offered a regular ML to babysit my niece on her off day for 4 hours for $150. She said no because she wanted more. I said $37.50/hour is pretty good when babysitters normally get about $20-25/hour. She said she knew that but she still wanted more.
