In a lot of cases, "thinking about money" is in fact a cause of failure.

The Model T, the DC-3, the Nikon F, the original Kentucky Fried Chicken, the iPod.

All of them were huge successes (and made a lot of money by the way) because their creators realized that their job "from day one" was to think about a top quality product.

When the guys who "think about money" take over the reins, it's often the case that the product line goes into the crapper.
