Without the extra wealth tax they would have almost certainty been better off because they can choose how to benefit from that money. Regarding others, I believe the onus should lie on the government before implementing the tax to show that everyone - including people paying the tax - will be better off because of the benefits from the wealth tax to others. Given how (in) efficient government can be in spending tax money, it's not an unfair expectation to have.
