The big question is how much TV money will be available when the G5 are totally separate from the rest of college football. Will interest in the MAC, WAC, et al go down?

It's OK to not be OK.
Everybody assumes that the P5 and the G5 are going to break away. I don't know if that is going to happen. Granted the rich are going to get richer. Here, is the breakdown for the College Football Playoff shares (This does not include any bowl shares from the 30 plus bowls):
SEC ... $87.5 million
ACC ... $83.5 million
B1G ... $60.0 million
PAC ... $60.0 million
B12......$58.0 million
MWC....$16 million
AAC .... $12 million
MAC.... $12 million
CUSA.. $12 million
SunB... $12 million
Of course, if this trend continues, there will only perhaps be 8 or 12 teams in the non G5 that could realistically compete for a shot at a major bowl (NY DAY 6) or shot at a playoff berth. But the G5 teams and conferences are still getting a hell of a lot more $ than they would if they moved down to FCS or if they formed a "new" second tier division.
Everybody assumes that the G5 will break from the P5. I don't think that is a given. Under the current system, the rich get richer, but the have nots are still getting more TV revenue than they would in the new second tier or the FCS. Each Sun Belt team received a $1 million for their share in the College Football Playoffs. It pales compared the SEC or other P5 teams. But is still better than the alternative.

When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

I hear you. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ is a huge barrier. Its not a one year thing. Its every year. There are plenty of other obstacles as well. But no need bringing those up as well.
Ive ridden in a Ferrari. Besides being over rated(imo) I still don't have the $$$$ to run with that crowd. I think there is a message their some where.
