I think that applies to all fields. You have to actually love the game to make the really big bucks, and loving the game means covetting power and beating others.
Me, I just want the money. Hence the yearly "We can't say anything bad about your performance, but there's something amiss with you."
"Yeh, no shit. I don't want to be like you at all. But I want your fucking money."
I can't think of anything I want less than power. Why would you want to play reindeer games with urban twit Napoleons?
