I love your attitude and wish more people were the same. It's a kind of jealousy that exists between people and I think speaks to the general unhappiness of most people in modern society. If people were happy in their lives, they wouldn't want to bring down successful people.
A google search for "unearned pleasure" comes up with lots of interesting results. I would expand that to the idea of "unearned success", which I think is implied to be a bad thing in our society.
There's a limit of course, but I wish our society was less focused on consumption and competition and more interested in trying to help make the average person's life less stressful and more fun.
