And why would less people want to succeed if succeeding still means a huge difference in comparison to not succeeding?

"So, you mean I'll only make a million a year?! Well, in that case I'd rather get by on 50 bucks a week."


The reason less people would (not want to) but have the motivation to succeed is the same reason less people would buy a playstation if it costs $1000. It's not like you can flip a swith a be rich, it takes a lifetime of work. I remember a time a while ago that I had to pass up a pay raise because it would have ended up costing me money.
