There's a difference between equality of wealth and equality of opportunity. Genuine equality of opportunity is unequivocally something to be desired and should be the ultimate goal of any society. Equality of wealth cannot and should not happen, because people are different. Enforcing equal wealth means limiting opportunity for those who want to take advantage of it. I would argue that this is a fundamental fact of human nature: even in a ideal communist or utopian system where there is no money, wealth would just take the form of respect and influence.
