who wouldnt leave their job for more money and lengthier job security? i would. and one thing that everybody has in common, if you make minimum wage or you're bill gates, no matter what nobody says "no i dont want more money" anybody would take more money if it's offered to them.
Yeah, but when you're a baseball player and are getting paid hand over fist to play a game, one that you presumeably love, loyalty to a team plays a larger role than just a paycheck. Thats why certain all stars, such as Jeter, will spend their whole career in one place. Sure, another team could pay him more but is it really worth switching teams all the time for?
