I’m pursuing this route right now. Sure it has some downsides but like it’s insane how productive you can get when you actually devote 12 hrs a day to your research. A PhD student will have to go to meeting, teach classes, spend time commuting etc. I get 12 hrs a day of pure research. That being said I’m far from wealthy.
