    AFAIK most billionaires become so by birth, even if the most prominent are the ones who made their fortune through their own exploits (though I assume most of those were already wealthy by birth).

    Becoming a billionaire by birth isn’t evil in itself, it’s the act of staying a billionaire. Though rare, there are examples of people born into considerable wealth who give most of it away to charity.
