Did you consider those who don't have the time to work a full time job? I'm interning as a Junior Webdev for 9 hours a day on no pay, and college is out of reach (financially) for me, although admittedly I'm probably a minority. It's not surprising that many of my students friends do have alot of excess cash though, considering that student living costs are relatively low and they often benefit from a wide range of discounts on amenities like internet etc.
