He did prove one thing, and that is that rich people legitimately think anyone who has less money than they do is just lazy. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary and his own failure the article seems to imply that he still thinks that is the case lol guess he didn't learn anything at all...

The only way you can hoard money like that is to convince yourself that poverty is a moral failing. Otherwise, your conscience can't handle it.

Nobody thinks they're the bad guy.

They know but their passive income depends on them not "knowing" and you knowing and acting up on it.
