    But it isn’t yet.

    You don't know that, I don't know that, no one knows that. We can only make reasonable assumptions. And the reasonable assumption is that he'd act in his own interest, talk to an accountant, and invest the money, thereby making it wealth.

    This is like assuming that a soccer player who makes a few million doesn't invest the money. Of course he would, why wouldn't he?

    I certainly wouldn't put him in the same category as billionaire bourgeois though, and I'm sure the person who said "0.1%" wouldn't either. But he's clearly wealthy, and that's more likely than not to affect his behavior.

      and I’m sure the person who said “0.1%” wouldn’t either.

      Except that by saying that, they have done that. That's the crux of my issue here.
