I don't think it's greedy to get used to a certain lifestyle and want to live the rest of your life like that and to have enough money left for your kids to do the same.

Whilst some players are earning hundreds of thousands a week I don't think it's unreasonable for someone in that same industry to want to earn 50k instead of 25k a week or even 35k instead of 25k a week.
I agree. Often, when you're on that kind of money, it's not just your wife and kids. It's your parents, your siblings etc.

If you had two brothers on 12K each a year and you had the opportunity to go from 20 to 35K a WEEK and didn't take it, how could you live with yourself?
