I've been financial since I crossed the sands but I'll throw in anyway. For grad bruhs it's simply a matter of want to. We all do what we want to in life, so it's hard to think that a brother -- who by definition is resourceful, tenacious, etc..-- can't get his financial commitment to the frat together. If you want to, you will.
Undergrads (u.g.) are in a slightly different boat. Set aside a portion of party proceeds so that they can be registered delegates to conventions, etc.. As for the other, there's part-time gigs, other legit ways to get "ends". Moral of the story: -- Alphas don't really deal in excuses. If we want it, we go get it.

Although I'm down with what I think is the spirit behind the comment, I don't agree with what's written. What Alpha gives, IMO, is intrinsic value -- fraternity, cohesion, manhood, etc... This is why intake fails -- it alone doesn't screen well enough for those who only want brotherhood for what the frat has to give.
Sphinx, if I've misinterpreted what you said, or meant, sincerest Egyptian apologies.
