What? It's a fact that capital is riskier than earning wages. If you can earn $X working, and have a neutral choice between the two, you will want an expected value of >>$X to be a capitalist. Economists have found this holds across income strata. Don't compare capitalist millionaires to your average laborer; that doesn't tell you anything about the risk-return of capital ceteris paribus.
Anyway, I was just trying to answer the original poster's question. I'm sorry that you are "sickened". To be honest, what often sickens me is people who think their sense of moral superiority entitles them to ignore the way the world is.
