I had a shower thought this morning:

At a certain point in capitalism, a wealthy person can get enough money to live comfortably the rest of your life. If you decide to continue to grow your wealth from there, you're essentially not just making money for yourself, but so others can't have it.

I have a feeling that number is well below a billion, but I'm no economist.
