> to get into the billions of dollars of net worth, you need to both ignore more and more problematic things

Need is too strong, especially if it’s just for becoming a billionaire. One can absolutely amble into that situation. Where I tend to agree is if you choose to keep those billions versus transitioning to charity.

the "need" is POV the person gaining the money.

Come on man. No one is ambling into being a billionaire.

There’s a little under 1000 billionaires in the US and the population is estimated at over 349 million. Rounding the billionaires up and the population down to those round numbers and it’s 0.000286532951% of the population getting resources that millions of others are trying to take.
