From what I've seen most people want to keep their cake and they want to eat it too. They're not willing to change jobs. They're also not willing to work on anything outside of work. Then they complain that their careers are stagnating.

Then again I'm biased. I work on stuff out side of work and I change jobs every 2-4 years so I can work with new technology.
