Think of a scale with money on one side, and love for the game on the other. I think the further you go back, it was way more about love for the game. As the decades progress, money starts to slowly compete with love for the game.
Back in the 50s and 60's these guys had regular jobs. I'm pretty sure that extended into the 70s and 80s as well. I know Danny White of the Cowboys worked in an office building back in '81.
