The C-suite probably does it more for power, influence, impact than the money. Of course it's nice to have some more money, but that's not going to meaninfully change your life at that point. Of course if you don't have enough to live by, the main goal is going to be to earn more or just to survive Past that, more money helps remove day-to-day problems in life, at various levels. But it becomes less important than other factors like having a healthy and meaningful life. I think it's assumed that the generalization applies to that level.
