That's not at all what I said or what I know of the situation. You are making assumptions based on your existing feelings without knowing anything of the matter. The person I know worked his ass off more than any person I've ever met.
In the industry I've worked in, I've had the opportunity to rub shoulders with celebrities, athletes, CEOs, etc. They have all been honest hard working people. Every one of them (over a hundred) had some philanthropic enterprises helping children, the sick, the homeless, animals, etc. Honestly, the wealthy people I've met in my life are the most incredible humans I've ever met. I guess that's what upsets me. I wish you could all meet one or two of them and see how you come away feeling that these people are the best hope we have at a kinder world.
I assume a wheel that turns will eventually end up on the other side. Because that's what wheels do. Just like billionaires. If they were so kind they wouldnt be billionaires. "Oh he gives money to children" and who fucking died and made him king of who gets saved? Who gave him authority to decide who deserves his help and who doesn't?
Everyone protects their own. That's the problem. He could instead give that money to his workers like they deserve but he pockets it and dishes it out on personal feelings and vibes. He is a monster. They all are. Like a wheel turns.
It's just incredible how few people know how money and business works.
