I'd sell the picture for $5 if it came right down to it. Is that a loss of honor and integrity for someone who could give a damn whether my kids eat or starve? Absolutely not. Better pull yourself out of this man-code BS like it's some kind of charity event. Its eat or be eaten. Or maybe in this case, sink or swim. I'm swimming away with my $5.

For some people, respect and honor is still more valuable than money. You say you have no allegiance to someone like Michael Phelps, but you go on to say you'd sell a pic for $5 if it came down to it. That shows exactly where your allegiance lies. Your allegiance is to money, and doing anything to acquire it. There are several terms for that type of allegiance...
This isn't about survival or eat or be eaten and you know it. It's about your acknowledging that you'd do anything for money regardless of anyone's moral stance. You stick with your greed. I'm sure it will get you far in life.
