I don't imagine too many folks who have been monetarily successful at it are getting out. Maybe a lot who've only managed to meet Deborah's first baby step of a business; make enough to feed the collection. The market is saturated and there's not enough profit for everyone with a couple of BPs. And it's a tough sell for the new guy with no rep. Of course the price drops have a lot to do with it. Plenty of people dropping a couple $K on the latest hottest morph thinking the offspring would sell for the same 2 or 3 years down the road. Had they done their research, they would've known that is the price point at which a morph is about explode (especially dom/codom) and prices are about to go into a tailspin.
