It reminds me of something I read in a book: "People that are good at making money like to talk about it; people that are not good at making money don't like to talk about it." You could probably replace "making money" with just about any activity, and I bet the statement would be true for the most part. One question to pose in this case is how much do I care about writing software for these anti-"getting-ahead" folks? If the goal is to profit from making the software, there's a good chance these folks don't have any bucks to cough up because they're spending so much time trying to not "get ahead".
