      Oh, most definitely.

      I meant that he actually had to work for what he made, rather than getting it as an inheritance, but he still had insanely favorable circumstances to start with.

        No one ever works their way to a billion dollars, even with a favorable start, they steal other people’s work to do it, but other than that, yeah, he didn’t inherit a billion dollars like everyone else. Which is why this list is about billionaires currently under 30.

          I still think it takes more effort to coordinate the theft of others work etc to become a billionaire compared to simply inherently a billionaire dollars. But this doesn’t mean I morally value either.
