I read what liviapenn said and I have to admit I greatly appreciate what you've added. The expedition members do seem more aristocratic just because they seem to lack the practical skills Teyla has.
I also have to admit some of the more interesting people I know are baristas. It's a tough job, talking to strangers all day and keeping their heads about them, but they do it with a smile.
And perhaps there's something to be said for not being the movie star, or the boss. We don't identify with the boss, because chances are, we're not in that position.
Maybe at the end of the day it doesn't matter what they do but how well they're written doing it, I'm sure there's a fic out there somewhere with Elizabeth, John and Rodney are a gang of street urchins who are rescued and taught how to function in society by Lady Emmagen and Lord Dex. Regardless, I have to agree it's more important to be a character rich in detail than rich in coins.
