There might be incentives other than financial ones.
I've seen that when people say that someone is "successful," they usually mean he's made a lot of money. But there are other kinds of success too. There are other ways to be at the top.
Additionally, I don't imagine that a UBI would be sufficient to get yourself a private island and a Lamborghini, so people who are motivated by that kind of thing would still want more cash.
So a high school kid going to a trade school and learning a trade would be a waste of money since this person would have the same income as a doctor?
