I never said that you couldn't, that number just isn't all that appealing to me.

It doesn't matter who works "harder" The means aren't justifying the ends when it comes to labors correlation to wealth. If your job is more important you automatically have more value.
The president of a company is already more important than the janitor in the company building or the guy that works in the carrier department of the company or the low level blue collar worker in there. Those ppl are cogs. The president already has the academic credentials he has worked for to be qualified for the job.
What incentive does anyone have on pursuing a higher education if they'll only be getting paid $10 more than the janitor? If some country went through with that economic plan the country would die within the decade cuz all would be doctors would either leave or give up and be butchers and mailmen.
Now if you want to talk about the entitled and privileged and those with an inheritance that's one obvious problem in the discussion but it is NOT an issue that dominates this argument.

if you're goal in life is to be rich, and your values in life revolve around money, then I can guarantee that you will never truly be happy in life and greed will always leave you aiming for more. If there is one thing that I have begun to reflect on more and more lately in life, it's that one can only really gain true happiness if you value the fundamental things in life like relationships, friends and interpersonal relations, good health, and passions/hobbies. And I say this as a dentistry student who's gonna be in a lucrative career. Take from that what you will, but hopefully some of you will one day see what I'm trying to say if you don't already

I wouldnt want a system that would inflate my $160K to $250K. My pay should be commensurate with the output I produce. If I think I am being underpaid for my services, it is my option to leave and seek employment and better pay elsewhere. If I was producing the exact same as I am now and all of a sudden a "system" came around that forced my employer to pay me more (potentially at his expense) not only is that unfair, but it is extremely inefficient and wasteful.
You are correct in that the rich are not always working harder than the poor, but just because it is not an absolute does not mean that it is not the case more often than not. You are right that in most cases, the rich stay rich. That is because someone on the front end had to find a way to create that wealth to begin with. If someone works hard to amass a huge fortune, who are we to say how he can spend it? If that rich person wants to hand his riches down to his children and their children so that they can live a hedonistic gluttonous life, that is his choice to do so. Its his money, he earned it. God willing I can continue to work hard, climb the corporate ladder, make that money so that my future children and future generations can reap the benefits of my labor.

I sincerely hope that some of you guys are just messing around and are not being serious.
You have to make the money work for you, too many of you are working for the money, and will be for a VERY long time.

damn if you got 1 million and aren't set for life, you must be doing something wrong, unless your in NYC or L.A. where the cost of living is so much more
with 1 million I'll open my own business and buy some old house's and fix them up and rent them out, and never have to work under some one else ever again
With just 200,000 K you can get a house down payment and a nice car in the suburbs

and I'd be set off a good 25mil a year if we're talking millionaire numbers. a consistent 25 mil yearly is enough for me to be out of control but yet still secure.
but in reality, why would you strive for just enough? you gotta go for it all... its never enough...
