Yeah, all the hard work Elon did to reach the egg cell before the other sperm cells in order to be born as the son of an Emerald Mine owner was truly remarkable.
Oh and what about when Elon got investment funds to help create Paypal because he had the money to gamble and afford to fail or not fail! I loved that part of the hard work. And the part where he controlled the media to believe he was a genius with an engineering degree despite not having one. Those are my favorites.
Everyone isn’t also not Elon, though. There’s a vast amount of billionaires who already started rich or just were in the right place at the right time. Talking like all, or even most of them are set for life due to their hard work is naive.

Hard work doesn’t make rich people, exploitation does.
Exploitation and a shitload of luck. Mostly exploitation, though.
I agree. To be in a position to be able to exploit involves a bit of luck.
or sociopathy

Our society is so bankrupt that it often feels as though having sociopathy is lucky in itself.

Everyone is Elon, good job.

How many billionaires do you think there are?!?
Uh, considering at least 100 people have 13 billions… a lot?
Even 1 is too many
