There's a vast difference between not being able to afford an absurd lifestyle of consumption and extravagance and being able to eat.
Someone's who's salary is cut from $100M a year to $49M a year, no matter how insane their spending was, isn't going to suffer.
If it's not clear: someone having to choose to buy a Ferrari instead of a Bugatti because of a pay cut is not the same as someone having to choose between shelter or food because of a pay cut.
