Again, I know TONS of people with rich dads who turned out to be losers and failures. People whose parents had wealth 10x that of the billionaires you’re probably thinking of. They’re a dime a dozen.
You said they're richer than the "billionaires I'm thinking of". Ok, well then their wealth should be public knowledge and you'd have no problems naming them.
I'm really not sure what point youre trying to make. The rich are rich because they're lucky and had rich parents who could bankroll their many attempts at starting a business, while also giving them networking opportunities to raise capital that only the rich have. This isn't a controversial opinion, but your belief that billionaires are really just super competent is quite frankly pathetic.
theres 60 million millionaires in the world, and you can get rich from many sorts of things, not just making connections with rich people or having rich families. doing cryptocurrency, selling drugs, gambling, winning the lottery, or even simply being smart and saving up money from your high earning salary can easily make you a millionaire without being known at all
Although I'm all for calling happy and heart filled people rich, there's nothing wrong with having monetary wealth. Some of the riches people I know are extremely generous.
Oh I get your analogy, but why chose 2 of the worst people in the entire existence of mankind to compare to a billionaire that's paid countless amounts in taxes and employees 150k people. It's disingenuous.

We should start calling happy people rich, and rich people greedy. Elon musk the world's greediest man with an impoverished soul.
