It seems weird to view it as an either/or. "Billionaires exploit people." -- "No, they build things people want." I think that you may be able to become a billionaire without exploiting people, but it's like playing on the high-difficulty mode. In other words, it's easier to be "successful" (from a monetary point of view) when you don't care about others. It's also easier to be successful coming from a privileged background. What's more, there can be a correlation between only knowing privilege and not caring about others, which perhaps leads to the number of billionaires who exploit people (double-advantage). But it's all very complicated. Sometimes a modest background is an advantage in that you have less to lose, and can provide unique insight in connecting with people. Or a modest background can lead to a survival-of-the-fittest or harsh-world mentality, which leads to the exact opposite, which can also be an advantage. At any rate, I've chosen to play on high-difficulty mode, for better or worse.
