No, I think there's a difference between hypothetically receiving a billion and what one does to earn/generate a billion.
The difference is exploitation, and sure, that's a fundamental part of our daily lives (he tapped into a smart phone, the hypocrisy is real), but the difference is they almost certainly doubled down in their greed, whereas I'm just maintaining comfortable levels within my sphere of influence - maybe I'm just mediocre, but I honestly believe the world is a better place without your typical billionaire.
