They make money on those who have more than they know what to do with.
Case in point: I spent six months in a project, which at its peak had about forty people working on it. Eventually it was scrapped and replaced with a solution from IBM, which in turn ended up... not being used at all.
Overall it was a hilarious waste of everyone's time, but somehow that was okay.
