Like Mike says, some businesses require your full commitment for a specified period of time and once you are into a project you may need to turn down other work to fulfill your obligations to the client.

I wonder how the client would feel if Mike's friend walked off mid project because a better paying gig popped up.
That's pretty much the deal.
