I was gonna include a third option about how money is easier to achieve without considering the morality of your actions but that’s not really a philosophy as much as it is an objective fact.

    I really don’t think so. If you went back in time and bought a bunch of Apple stock you too could be a billionaire, no obviously antisocial behavior required.

    There are examples of billionaires that were helped along the way by being an asshole, and it might improve your chances slightly, but it’s neither necessary nor sufficient.

    That’s a given and the fact that most megarich people don’t recognize this feeds back into them being assholes.

    Unambiguously agree. They actually prefer being called evil to being called lucky.
