It’s just a class that is absolutely exploring people. You can’t become a billionaire without it. You can absolutely become an honest millionaire so it wouldn’t make sense to use that.

Yeah like there are folks who are worth 10ish million who just bought a house 50ish years ago that gained a lot of value and had dual incomes that saved all their money for retirement.

100 million folks are on THIN ice, but there is probably an author or inventor out there who made something really nice and everyone they worked with was also well taken care of. Most of them are probably garbage, but not all of them have to be. Some famous actors also were well known for making sure everyone got paid what they deserved on set and were very generous.

I just don’t see getting to a billion without someone being taken advantage of on the way though.

JK Rowling should be a billionaire, but she keeps giving money away.

Just because you don’t understand doesn’t mean it’s false.

By all means, show me some billionaires that never took advantage of anyone to get their billions and actually earned it. I’m down to change my view.
