Yep. And I'd go further. Class mobility in the West is dead. No matter how smart and skilled and competent you are, you will never be one of the ultra-rich - and no matter how ignorant and incompetent one of the ultra-rich is, they'll never lose enough money to become "merely" well off. The entire broken system, one that's designed to funnel money from the working class to a handful of ultra-rich families, will keep making the rich richer no matter what they do.

We have a billionaire caste, not a billionaire class, and this story makes it painfully obvious.

Throughout pretty much all of human history it's been apparent that the "nobles" class has been, at best, more trouble than they're worth; and at worst, the instigating spark that creates a nation-destroying blaze.

It should come as no surprise to anyone who has read a history book that the American nobleman is equally as useless and destructive as his counterpart anywhere else.

While undoubtedly true, this story is about a South Korean CEO of a South Korean company.

Sure. This comment thread is about class mobility in the West though.

But, fact is, it seems it's the same everywhere.
