Do you have a source to verify your statement that the majority of the people that are worth more than $999,999 inherited their money. It may be true. I don't know. I personally know many people, including several from my graduating high school class that are worth that much, and more, that did not inherit their money. They came from working class parents, and started out as working class themselves. In addition I don't think that in this age being worth $999,999 is a qualifier to be classified as being rich.
