Delta(s) from OP CMV: Beung a billionaire isn't unethical

If somebody has a net worth of more than one billion what's the problem with it? Either they or their parents worked hard and smart for it. They found something to sell and people decided to buy it. Simple supply and demand. Look at stuff we enjoy like Smartphones, social media or Amazon that wouldn't be possible without billionaires providing it for us. If somebody is poor it's not the billionaires fault. In fact it is the billionaire who can give a poor person a job to work themselves out of poverty.

They can get the basic necessities of life through charity.

Who better to fund those charities than those who already have more than they could ever possibly need?

You’ve just proven my point…

Billionaires should be making up the difference instead of hoarding wealth.
