you don't know what financial challenges they are facing, so there is no point in arguing that 500K is enough for their household.

[s1artibartfast]

If 500k/yr isn't enough to meet your household needs, you don't have a financial problem, you have a personal problem.

[b20000]

like I said, none of your business

[s1artibartfast]

Totally agree unless they want to complain about it to me. If a peer or employee tried to sell me a sob story about 500k not being enough I would tell them to hit the road

[b20000]

again, you have no idea what’s going on with their life or finances. people find themselves in situations all the time they think would never happen. hope you never end up there.

[s1artibartfast]

I don't care what's going on in their life.

If I'm ever in a position where I need more than 500k/yr, it will be my problem, not somebody elses.

[setr]

As a company, if their financial troubles exceed 500k, why is that my problem?

Especially if I can get an equivalent resource without the excessive financial troubles for 200k that isn't moonlighting?

just because you want money doesn't mean you get money
