This is only true in the kind of jobs where you're just a pair of hands.

In most jobs the more "productive" you are, the more you learn, and the quicker you progress to the next level.

While you're making money for your boss you can be learning how to make money for yourself.

On second thought, perhaps what you said is true, but that 15% premium compounds over the years.
