Conceptually, though in reality/over shorter time frames, it's potentially just as tied to political/human considerations vis a vis the person setting the compensation decision. Maybe easier to avoid this in start-ups, but I saw it happen with some frequency in the context of working for a large global bank. At a certain scale, feudalism or liege-lord-vassal models becomes as good of a mechanism for interpreting outcomes at a human level as anything else.

When you walk into their office and go back towards the area where Elon's cubicle is, the same photo of the terraforming transition is blown up on the wall: https://www.flickr.com/photos/44124348109@N01/9848295393
Their company mugs also have a heat sensitive image of Mars that terraforms itself: http://shop.spacex.com/accessories-81/occupy-mars-heat-sensi...
Elon is ::definitely:: already thinking about the colonization phase of the project and has taken steps to highlight it to the company and the public.
