plus it takes work and skill to make money, more so than it takes to make a truck go through the mud, now that is something i can be impressed about.
Any jerkoff with a fat wallet can make a BAD *** mudding truck just by buying everything possible and throwing it on. Guys that have to work 9-5's dont have the luxury. A guy who doesnt have a limitless budget has to cut corners and be far more machine savvy to get the same results with less to spend. There is the relation.

He built pretty much all of that truck himself... and works a normal job too.

Plus I think it comes down to taste and attention to detail more than dollars. There are some people that are out there that work 9-5 and can build great machines based on ingenuity and a bit of class, and then there are those that buy a 60k SUV, throw 44's under it on chrome rims and call it a day.
Likewise, there are a lot of people that don't have a lot of money, and build for want of another word - crap heaps - and those with a bit of coin that say... may restore an old Bently... or say, build an old Ford truck up to be a mud demon
