Ah, someone who enjoys job security - or the illusion thereof :-)

Not everyone has that, you know. Even in the days when I was working for salary, I more than once had the experience of coming in to work at the latest startup, only to see a bunch of strange faces, and hear the joyful message "Hi, we're from the venture capitalists, and we're here to restructure/shut down. Here's your two weeks severance - clean out your desks, and be gone by 5." In such a case, it's nice to not have a lot of payments to make next month.
