Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.

I just love being able to create and make things that inspire and that make people laugh, and my motivation to keep going is to make more opportunities to do that.
Motivation will almost always beat mere talent.
