You should be interested not only in things that can benefit you economically but also in broader cultural things. ”    Hi YL,   In fact, I wanted to say that that example is wrong. :) You read it wrong.

Your second sentence has a possibility that (should)NOT can modify both ONLY and BE INTERESTED. That's why, I think, the sentence is something a bit difficult to understand. What do you think?
