what do you do with all the moolaa?

Depending on whether you work for a group or a hospital, activities can vary. For example, I have a friend who is a recruiter for a group, but also works in that group as a CRNA. She visits various schools to talk to students, and as such some travel is required, along with a decent wardrobe.

One other angle: The money and the group position also affords her the opportunity to not work as many hours during the week, and still make a good living. This allows her to spend more time with her son. So you could say that depending on what you want out of life, more 'stuff' or more time to enjoy life, both can be achieved, it just depends on your priorities. I'm not sure this answers the question, but just thought i would throw that out there.
