Donald Trump comes to mind.
He made some, I repeat, SOME of his beginning wealth, but the majority of it was given to him. He gave his children their wealth too.
You can be assured that the 'leaders' of North Korea haven't earned a single piece of silver in their lives; all their wealth is handed to them, or is taken from the poor.

In America, many (not all) did; In Europe, most of them just inherited "old world" wealth (like the "royal" inbreds for example...)

10% will have. Probably even 1% will have, but much lower than that and they might not. There’s a lotttt of people in this world, 10% is 750 million people

Yes, many of them started with little to nothing and made their own money. Of course there are those who had some big handouts and those who just stole their riches from others.

Probably a tenth of the top 10% just inherited it and are living off the earnings it generates.

Many of them have or do currently. Jeff Bezos runs Amazon.
@HoraceGreenley Hadn't he started with a book selling company?

@scooogy Actually he started on Wall Street. Then he founded Amazon selling books online.

Bill Gates

NorthernBear · 51-55, M
He's in that top 10% and had at least a couple jobs before starting his own business
@NorthernBear Okay but I mean people having had absolutely no job before becoming rich.
