The vast majority of wealth is generational wealth, get outta here with that sh!t. Risk is not self made. Maybe a guy starting his own plumbing business or a carpenter, but once you hire employees you are no longer self made. You have money? You sound like all the other rich people & their propaganda. Carnegie was self made? Rockefeller? Vanderbilt? None of them did the work, they were just the money. Without workers & the people buying the goods they are nothing. Who's more important to the economy, rich people or the workers & consumers?
It takes both. The workers don't have the vision or the skill to build what those you just listed did. Wealthy men and women create jobs.
You sound like a government worker or someone who enjoys Karl Marx.
Also, do I have money? I mean I can pay my bills and my employees. But most of my profits I invest back into my business so I can grow and hire more people. I'm certainly not a billionaire or even a millionaire (maybe on paper I am?) but I've got employees that make more than me in any given year. I actually took a massive pay cut to go into business for myself last year. However, I'm hopefully growing something that will last generations.
You Cleary don't have what it takes to run a small business. And that's okay, it takes all types.
