FWIW, I took abatt's remark about Kistler as wit. I can't imagine anyone going into ballet for the money, just as I can easily imagine those artists who do make it up the scale having the sensitivity to appreciate the comforts a good income, not to say riches, can bring.



Eh, I'm not sure that Kistler's salary, when compared to the work she's been through to get it, is high enough to make "she must be in it for the money" effectively witty.

Even with considerable royalties, PM's number seems disproportional.
You could argue that it's those very "disproportionalities" that convey high status. That certainly seems one of the lessons we are learning from the recent history of the financial service industry. "The more I make than you, the more worthy I am than you."
