    Are you really so naive that you think that applies to people who happen to have rich parents?

    Because they aren’t talking about you, they’re talking about your parents. If you become your parents, they’re talking about you.

      What do you think happens with wealth? It stays. If my parents are rich then I am rich what are you even trying to say?

      You think I wasn’t given millions already?

        What happens with wealth? Ideally, it gets spent and/or given away rather than hoarded.

        If you are hoarding wealth, as most rich people are, then yes, you are the one being discussed.

        No one is forcing you to keep those millions.

          No one except the very system that makes poor people miserable? Oh you noble grand standing naive person. Besides wealth can be used for many good things.

          But yes I am willingly going to throw it all away and go homeless

            I’m not all surprised that you think anyone who doesn’t have millions of dollars is poor.

            And yes, wealth can be used for many good things. See above, re giving it away rather than hoarding it.
