That's TRULY how the rich get richer... It's not about capitalism. It's off the back of the working class that are the ones "really" producing the wealth - but are forgotten about, tossed aside as not worthy..
It's sad.

before you can invest that million you had to earn it first, no? It's a common myth that millionaires inherit the money and just sit on their asses the whole day doing nothing... but that's actually not the case, most millionaires today are actually self-made... they spent their lifetime earning that money, doing productive work just like everyone else...
