Sometimes you have rich parents. Sometimes you have friends with rich parents. Sometimes you just find yourself at the center of a CIA money laundering operation.

I know several (low) millionaires and none of them exploited other people's hard work. All of them are self-employed, and one of them is the single employee of their company.
Billionaires on the other hand. Yep, no way to get to a billion without heavy exploitation and sociopathic behavior.

Where'd you, uh... where'd you get all that compound interest on your investments from?

"I've never exploited anyone!"
"Oh really, what do you do for a living?"
"Insurance defense lawyer."

The difference between a billion dollars and a million dollars is about a billion dollars.
Man, that graph and website is amazing. Simple, but gets the point across. I'll share it from time to time.

When it comes to new technologies, advancements, or discoveries, rarely is it the people who made them that get most of the profit made from them, the people that make the most are the ones that exploited them. It's crazy that our best and brightest are more times than not indentured to our most greedy.
There needs to be laws and regulation to prevent and stop excessive greed and exploitation.

It’s like a clicker game but with scrolling and depression. I’ve attempted to get all the way through it multiple times, but never succeeded.

You've started with the premise that making money is evil, and are working backward from there.
"Oh no, you invested in index funds!!!" - yeah, so does everybody via their 401k or pension.
"Oh no, the work you did had any negative impact at all!!!" - thats basically every job. Communist agitators pollute the environment by driving cars to protests, and vegans kill field mice in their fields of soybeans. There are plenty of ways to make money that make the world better on net.

The monetary system is a miserable way to justify homelessness, neglect, and poverty, sure.
thats basically every job.
The fact that you can't imagine a job that improves the lives if your friends and neighbors is kinda bleak.

You seem to be acting intentionally dense to avoid changing your mind, so I'm going to stop responding.

One of them is a self-employed pentester, they're very good at it. Pure income. The others are soft devs with their own product.
You can always move the goal post and say their clients are exploiting their employees, but we can keep moving it even further and claim that anyone who lives under capitalism exploits someone else down the line.
