I would have no way of knowing what the financial resources were of
some of the jurors I served with.  There might have been one or two
that would be an exception to your statement.

Though during the selection process, there were quite a few jurors
that were excused for financial reasons (we knew going in that it
would be an extended trial).  So in that respect, I would say there is
an element of truth to that.

Unfortunate.....
