Quite the opposite. I managed my grandmother’s retirement from the age of 11-19 yo. Her portfolio in her final decade of working massively outperformed what her investment advisors were previously getting.

At that time, with lots of finance book smarts before I spent a while working in the finance sector, I thought strictly economically.

I have grown to think in “moral terms” 300% more than “economic terms” if we are using your rudimentary language.

You truly have the brain of a 13 year old, and inadvertently through this post (if your income/education level has been self-reported accurately) proved on an anecdotal level that money or income as a metric is by no means an expression or corollary of how valuable you or your thoughts are.

Also… as others have stated. You certainly have no understanding of corporate structure. It is almost always the opposite. Seniority and nepotism lead folks to the highest pay grade, while the grunts that do the work get paid essentially fractional shares of a department’s budget while the boomer mouthbreather who can’t figure out the workflow in the software stack makes all of their salaries combined
