A Reddit post received a flurry of comments from users, with some agreeing that there's no difference whether you make "20k, or 200k a year," while others disagreed.

"If you're making $300k a year, you have more in common with someone making minimum wage than you do with Elon [Musk, the founder of Tesla and other corporations]. There are people that walk among us that have so much wealth, that even generations of mismanagement can't squander it. These folks you speak of are not those folks."

      Nevermind all the Temporarily Embarrassed Millionaires who believe they're just one more Bitcoin away from joining Elon's country club.

      Identity is at the heart of legitimizing capitalism. Everyone needs to believe they are aligned with the billionaires if the billionaire is to sleep safely.
