That does kind of make sense though - if you are paid to be right but someone doesn't believe you, you are still getting paid, so what does it matter?

I was referring to the situations where being right directly means you make money - right about price movements, right about what users want, right about whether oil is present in a particular digging location, etc. In those cases you only get paid if you actually are right.
