Because that's not how the real world works. In real life earn=accomplishing the goal set forth. I earn nothing if I walk into my business and stand there all day. I earn when I do the deeds necessary to be successful. Right now I stand In crucible while real life me poops and watches YouTube and this "earns" me rewards. I understand some people have short term employment like that but they never advance in their life. Because in the real world I have to go work to earn.
