You do not need to be a student, unemployed etc to be in a static. Our static, near all of us work, 2 of them are full time teachers. Have families. All those things you say detract from the possibility of joining a static. And, even with our random schedule of when we can raid each week due to RL responsibilities changing the days available we have cleared all content. Yes, it took us longer than many statics, but we weren't racing.

If you are aiming for world/server firsts then a lot of time in a short period is needed, if, like us, firsts don't matter. Then being part of a static with RL responsibilities is entirely feasible.
