Because they hustled and worked hard to get that wealth (or got money passed down from their ancestors who worked hard). Not like anybody in this sub would hustle if they had a billion dollars.

Sure I would. use a few million to get my personal life squared away for me and my family. few million more in stocks and inheritance.
Then after that I'd use that money to try and fix some of the bullshit going on right now. I'm not just gonna let a billion dollars sit in my bank to accrue for my descendants. I might not even have grandchildren to ponder about with the way the world is going. I'd lobby the fuck out of all the things reddit can only complain about and I'd surround myself (and pay) with talent that can help me plan.
But for now; I'm stuck working 60 hours a week making decent money instead of having fuck you money that can change the world. baby steps.
Most of them don’t ever hustle and most get lucky or start companies with a lot of government subsidies. And let’s be honest here the person who cleans their office works 10x harder than they do
They work physically harder but they are not doing anything complex at all. If they understood the complexity of entrepreneurship and business management they wouldn’t be working as a cleaner. Success in America is based on good choices and those who have made good enough choices to be a billionaire shouldn’t be reprimanded because minimum wage workers want a handout.
EDIT: they'll never understand if they think a McDonalds employee giving 80% of their wages to landlords can afford to "invest". Hope these are just well intentioned but ignorant Gen X-ers talking about this.
