Anyone that has above $100,000,000 USD in wealth stole wages from multiple people, somewhere along the way.
In theory, if one was born into wealth, and was lucky as all fuck, they could “earn” enough to be flirting with $100,000,000 without underpaying anyone, but that is unlikely. A more realistic cutoff is $10,000,000 to $20,000,000
1: rich is a relative term, but for the sake of argument let’s say it’s if someone has had all of their basic needs met (food, shelter, healthcare), is able to pursue diversion/fulfillment outside of work, and still has enough surplus to hoard without compromising the previous two points.
2: no, it is not possible because as long as there are those who lack adequate food, shelter, or healthcare any surplus wealth should be used to either provide a path for those who are lacking to be able to obtain those necessities themselves or provide those necessities directly (especially in the case of the elderly, infirmed, and/or disabled). To do otherwise would be to deny them of their unalienable rights to life (food, shelter, healthcare) or pursuit of happiness (to live a life worth living).
