He is saying that comes with a price, which cannot be evaluated through money alone: cause, craft, use and design intent have more to do with it. How is that wrong?

He's in a privileged position, sure, but it's one he earned.

Everyone has to pay bills, doesn't mean you organize your entire life around it. It's an incredibly easy concept to understand and even live by..... My hat off to the man for his amazing integrity and contribution to the field. lol @ all the people surprised and baffled when he says he's not in it for the money.
