Is It Just The Money?

Today in the Publishers' Lunch, I read where a person who was self-published dropped the price of their book to $1.99 and sold hundreds a day. I can't help but wonder two things. 1) Is that just advertisement for the Kindle? 2) Is money the real reason a person would self-publish? We know they most rarely break even.

Sure I would like the money, but I rather someone pay me to publish the book, and I would like to see the hard print copy in stores everywhere.
