Have you considered that people who get rich are just better than you? Obviously other factors are at play too, but anybody who's launched themselves up a tier in wealth usually are brilliant, bold risk takers, work super hard, and create way more value for the world than you do.

I sit on my ass half the days playing video games or watching youtube, I get tired after going outside like once, my house is messy, I poop like twice a week, and because of this I do *not* produce a ton of value for those around me and I do not deserve to be ultra rich.

Some people's brains are just 'better' than others in the sense of being constructed in a way that betters more people's lives, no shit they end up being more vibrant creators in the world with more successful lives.

I was under the impression that a minority (like 20%) of rich ppl (or at least millionaires) inherited any substantial money.

Stop falling asleep on capitalist propaganda if it's leaving that sort of impression on you.

The richest people, like billionaires, usually came from a substantial level of wealth to begin with, but the vast majority of their current wealth was newly created under their watch, not inherited. It takes money to make money, but not a *huge* amount.
