I know I wouldn't turn down millions of dollars to do my art. Would anyone?
Depends what else you have in your life and how much you value that over money.

Lindsey has always valued money (don't be fooled) but he's valued artistic integrity over profits (usually; he's compromised lately re: FM). He's got a family and I suspect if things take too much time away he'd turn down some profits. Christine had simply had enough of the touring and the flying and wanted some personal time and walked away from all the money of a more extended tour and future albums.

The only one not saying no to money would be Mick, and Stevie. I think he's got plenty to live on and with his boat and family taken care of John isn't as grubbing for cash either.

Money's great, and this is a business so it's tempting to get it while you still can, but not everyone does everything solely for money.
