Even that's not necessarily true; sacrificing short-term salary to stablish an organization where you could have a long-term, modest salary doing something you care about (and therefore can stay with over the long term) is a financial incentive. It may not appeal to the same people that a big cash-out payday from a for-profit startup appeals to, but its still a financial incentive.
