You wouldn't being giving up more, you just wouldn't be taking extra money that you don't need.

Do you really think people with household incomes of $80k+/yr are going to decide to forgo buying cars, properties, an other items that require credit, just to get the UBI, which would be insignificant to their lifestyle? Maybe some really miserly people would, but I can't see a lot of people doing it.
