Because being bad is advantageous from the evolutionary perspective - tl;dr: chicks dig him, guys respect and wanna be like him. I bet he doesn't let any cute pussy go by.

Ok, serious question here. Why not become a businessman during university and gradually make more and more money, so that when you go for phd you are already wealthy enough not to be a slave and be able to do whatever research you want? Also I've heard physicists/mathematicians are welcome in companies doing economy researches, so you've always got that going for you.
I know a chemist, who cooks some complex stuff for companies as a job, while postdocking.
Physicists and mathematicians would have to come up with something unrelated for business, but hey, if you pursue science path on the premise of being intellectually superior, surely, you'll think of something, right? Riiiiight?
Besides, there's always hustling scene.
