You can't just accept the fact that musk is richer and better than you and you hate him.

But you do know that Elon Musk was founder of PayPal, right? He sold that and then started his business. Know about someone before you talks shit. Btw I don't like Elon incase you think I am his supportter or something.

No, I don't believe that billionaire worked hard for their money.

How do you tell someone is stealing money underneath them? Oh like if you are the kind of guy who thinks that if robinhood stole money and gave others then if others make money using their employees then it's bad thing. You have just stupid mentality.

I also know that most guys have inherited from their family. But doesn't change the fact that your ancestors didn't make any money to your generation.

Yeah I knew that. Funded by his father's emerald mine money no doubt. And pretty sure he just bought in, not founded. Something about a PayPal merger with x.com (Elon Musk). Musk isn't clever, he doesn't know how to code, he doesn't have any real skills. He's never done anything at spaceX, you think he's designing rockets or some shit? No. He's making actually smart people do it for him.

The fact is, you can't become a billionaire without exploiting your workers. And these ancestors that created money did so in exploitive ways too, slaves, colonising, EMERALD MINES, etc.

Genuinely, show me a good billionaires who earned their money and I'll show you 100 who inherited slave money or exploited their workers.

I'm genuinely curious I don't think there is a single good billionaire?
