How many generations deep does "your family" run? Do you really think people with multiple billions of wealth were living beneath their means?

(I agree with your point if they are upper middle class or even have 10-50 million dollars of wealth). But when you are part of the top 0.1% of the population, there is no way you are living beneat your means to be self sufficient in retirement.

Well it's hard to argue that anyone who has positive wealth is living beyond their means.
