In reality, that cannot be the case, though you may not have intended such nor acted in any way dishonestly or greedily.

I say that because there are billions of people who live in poverty and without even the most basic of essential needs for health and survival, let alone any real well-being. There are also billions who are never likely to be able to live without working, unless it is also to suffer inordinately, if they survive at all.

On that basis, you have immense privilege and that has come from having an excess of wealth over need, hence as do most of us in even moderately stable and reasonably recompensed employment in wealthy nations, you have accumulated wealth - in effect, at the expense of others - though, as I said, I am not suggesting in a conscious or intentional or in any many devious or corrupt way.

Unfortunately, the equation of 'success' with wealth and power that is conditioned into the psyche by our materialist and consumerist society, together with the poor models set by 'leaders', the commercialisation of our schooling and education systems and the power of media influence, means that most don't question or realise that they are complicit in what they profess to dislike. In fact, I'd suggest that many are envious of those they profess to despise or, at least, envious of what those people have.

As you imply in your final sentence, there are much deeper questions than the surface ones you have raised, including such issues I have mentioned and some of the extremely debatable statements you have made in your article, albeit in good faith.

Take care. Stay safe. ☮️
