Alternative headline: "76% of HPEs are paid well enough to not be motivated by money"
I think what this idea really misses is that there's a difference between being intrinsically motivated by money and being motivated by as a result of one's current financial situation.

I do expect that investment to pay off in future returns of some sort (job security, future salary). It's not that I don't care about salary anymore.

But if we're taking stabs at conclusions, you could also say something like: "Only 76% of high performance employees feel they are compensated adequately [enough to no longer be motivated by money]." Suddenly we're writing an article about how a quarter of high performers feeling like they're getting a raw deal, instead of writing about transcendental work.
