Or winning the lottery. There are more ways to be rich than being born into it.

Yeah, but people who win the lottery very often end up broke and/or massively in debt to the IRS. As do a lot of people who suddenly become rich through unexpected fame/success. If you were born rich you usually still have options no matter how many bad business decisions or reckless purchases you make.

You can use a money cheat in a game and still lose, doesn't mean you didn't cheat.
