    I can easily tell the difference; one is born in money and is actually mooching on society, the rest of us should team up and kick that guy.

    Your issue is one of perspective. You think your little things have a meaning, and you think that someone like Elon Musk just has more things (edit: because he worked harder or longer). As someone that actually works with centimillionaires and some billionaires, their lives are incredibly different on a fundamental level. They don’t just have more spare things. They suck government subsidies as income.

    Trust me, the guy who is asking for a spare has it just as bad as you, with extra bad luck that day. Show some empathy.
