I agree. It always amuses me when I see that class envy thing. It's okay for someone to create a business, take risks, hire people, buy product from other sellers which helps them stay in business, etc. And it's okay if someone expands their business and starts making the big money.

But at some point, their success gets to be a problem for some people, and other than the emotion of common jealousy, I have never been able to understand. Success is good. Big success is good. Huge success... to some folks, no, that's bad.
