they are just required to contribute to the world more than they take

They wouldn't be millionaires or billionaires then. You don't get millionaire without appropriating the labor of others.

    Hard disagree. My mom is a working class socialist and a millionaire.

    Edit to add: million ain't as big as it used to be.

    Million ain't as much as it used to be. There are actually tons of millionaire teachers.

    Yeah, I recall a Ramsey poll where the fourth highest profession for millionaires is teaching.

    Learning from others and following a plan is how one becomes a millionaire. Teachers have those critical skills down.
