I suppose people are people and regardless of what you make, you'll settle at the level of effort you're inclined to.
I think your second paragraph is correct. What they make doesn't matter. To a person in a third world country, what you or I make would seem like an unbelievable amount, and they would assume we are both motivated to work as hard as possible every day. But odds are we are both at work while posting on CP today, so are we really giving 100% to our jobs to earn our pay? Most likely we're doing what is required and not a lot more, because that is human nature.
