Give back to society? I’m suspicious of anyone with a lot of clout, money and power under capitalism. I’ve seen the kind of shit this sick society rewards.

I wouldnt “necessarily” say that. Theres a whole lot of pure luck involved as well into getting rich for many people. Like you could have just gotten some bitcoins years ago and boom. Even if you are say a talented artist or athlete theres still a fuckton of luck involved.
Not saying the elite of society doesnt get there through exploitation.
Just that you can make bank or real money by pure luck and that is legit. Take many early youtubers for example.
I’d go as far as to say that I don’t think you make a bunch of money without it. I’ve seen multiple perfectly competent people with a bunch of money and connections not have the right connections. I saw someone else who got a bunch of money charging a fuckload for some service in Medicare. They nearly lost it all and then did lose a bunch of it for being a piece of shit. I had a guy tell me that I should start selling bullshit licenses and he was doing intensely well.
If they get really rich by luck and keep it all though, I still think they’re bad. If I won the lottery or something I would just keep enough to guarantee a decent roof over my head and all bills paid for life, and give the rest away.
Thats noble of you. I “think” I wouldnt. Unless we are talking like an obscene amount of money.
Like if I got “just” a million. thats just enough to buy one really nice place for myself and my brother and I would keep the rest of the money for my family and myself
Yes, I do mean an obscene amount of money. Half million nowadays would jut about buy a nice house and some left over to live off.
