    Sorry, I worded it poorly. I mostly agree with what you said. But I’m not talking about inheriting a billion dollars. To “earn” a billion dollars, you don’t just exploit a few people, you create an entire system designed to exploit as many people as possible. And you have to ignore the inequality and harm you’re causing the entire time you’re building that giant fortune. It’s a bit of a “chicken and egg” situation, but I imagine many times the disorder is already at least partially there…

      Are there perhaps billionaires without this disorder, against whom we can compare?

      If not, the chicken and egg situation should dissolve, no?
