I care. IOW, are you kidding? The career earnings between a guy who upgrades soon vs the guy who is unable to upgrade can be HUGE. It could easily be a million bucks over a 20 span, especially when you add the 16% kicker. And that's a LOT of hookers 'n' crack!

Sure, UA has some decent seats to rot in until upgrade, but being the boss has other benefits as well.
