    I understand just fine. What I’m saying is that using that word implies that they have earned all their wealth and are more deserving than others who didn’t have the same help and luck. More deserving than others with the same background who have worked just as hard with less help and/or luck along the way.

    Whether or not that’s the intention, that’s the implication and thus why using the word at all skews the conversation.
