How about we eliminate billionaires while we're at it? To auto-adjust this for inflation, it can be defined as the current cost of 10,000 kg of gold. That's 10 metric tons which is a very generous amount for any individual.

- M95D 2y agoIf you invest money in other people's labor expecting a return (stock market, pension, but not crypto or a house), then you are exploitative. You just don't do it yourself, you delegated it.
- OutOfHere 2y agoYou're trying to equate capitalism with exploitation, but they're not the same. There is such a thing as fair market compensation. Exploitation exists when people are made to work over 40 hours a week, or they get stifled with bad health insurance, or lack a safe work environment, or otherwise taken advantage of such as with a visa issue. Not every stock investment is exploitative.

- OutOfHere 2y agoNo. I don't leave any money in the bank account beyond what I need to pay the bills. This is because money is often stolen from users of bank accounts, and the bank generally refuses to make them whole.
