Celebrities gain fame through coincidence on average. They coincidentally look good, coincidentally are more athletic than most, coincidentally were in the right place at the right time, coincidentally have a beautiful singing voice. They at times worked hard for what they received, but on average its a coincidence they became what they did. It is glaringly obvious that most celebrities lack intelligence, knowledge, or any other form of virtue, but they are revered.
Money is a medium of exchange, you are paid for your ability. A wealthy person is a person of ability. They idea that 80% of wealth is inherited is FALSE. When a family member dies his family MUST pay a 50% inheritance tax on ALL their assets, not just cash. This means that if a man worth $50 million dollars dies his family must pay the government $25 million dollars. Often the family won't even have $25 million dollars their money will be tied up in assets which will then have to be sold.
