It wouldn't be false consciousness if you would be from wealthy family.
Yes, working people should climb the ladder, but without government intervention and putting collars on wealthy necks there won't be any ladder for them. There would be no small business owners like you. This is why I think you are very wrong when stating you are not one of them. In a sense that is true, but in other you have more common interest with those without any capital that with those really wealthy. But those really wealthy definitely want you to think otherwise.
And I have an impression your view of Marxism is forged on Reddit posts and not Marxists literature.
