Some people think anyone whose parents actually owned a house are "the elites".
No. The CEO earned more in a year than even someone with a six figure salary would earn in a lifetime.
And yet, despite that was still responsible for less deaths than the CEO
Maybe his family did, but judging by his work history, he wasn't personally wealthy enough to be owning a country club.
If he was "owns a country club" rich, his work history would mostly just say "Owner and CEO of whatever country club".
There's no reason to work any sort of normal job if you have that kind of income rolling in.
Could well be in debt up to their eyeballs and barely making a profit, for all we know.
