It depends entirely upon how it is obtained.

Generally you are correct that a certain level of worth is unobtainable without being a horrible human but not always. As I said, there are many athletes who are working class despite earning many tens of millions.

I very much consider Muhammed Ali a revolutionary comrade for example.

Then there is Maradona. An incredible comrade who has Fidel Castro's face tattoo'd to his leg and Che's on his arm. Who did incredibly important work for socialism in latin america.

You should focus less on their total income and more on how it is made. Class is what matters, and while class generally forms along the lines of rich vs poor this is a reductive simplification of marxist thought.

I mean... Herrenknecht has a revenue of roughly 1.2bn Euro, value is estimated at 800mn. Sure he hired tons of people and he's conservative, but Martin Herrenknecht legitimately built that thing, both the engineering and business side and seems well-liked enough by his employees.

And if we wants to drive a Porsche and live in a mansion I'd say fucking go for it. Now, OTOH, inheriting that kind of thing... Herrenknecht Junior practically grew up in the company and is a natural candidate for leadership, the company is now owned by a family foundation and there's where my issues start: We'll have a dynasty, profit gets siphoned off and paid out to the family. Would've much rather see them go the way of Bosch or Zeiss which are actual foundations, similar setup to e.g. Mozilla.
