sure it's a motivation. They train all day long, what time they have for other jobs? If they take other jobs, how they are supposed to be a concert-grade pianist? Not unlike professional athletes, BTW...

Certainly no one is expecting to be a multimillion dollar rock star out of piano concerts in such lousy BS-consuming era, but is it wrong to expect to at least be able to pay your bills from performance or recordings?
