>Everyone I grew up with never has to work a day in their life.
Sounds like you grew up in an exceptionally wealthy area, or you have a culture of very high nepotism for well paying do-nothing jobs.
>Your family being in the top 10% is more than enough that the kids will never have to work a day in their life.
I'm a leaf and top 10% of household income here is only 125k. Even top 1% is only 271k.
That's enough to support a family but there's no way anyone making that much has enough for their kids to never work. It wouldn't even be enough to buy their kids a house or pay their rent their entire lives.
Even if you're talking wealth, top 10% is 800k-1.4m, which is barely enough to support 1-2 people.
Maybe at top 1% of wealth which is around 6m, that's enough to support kids to not have to work, but even the rich don't want to support their kids their whole lives, they push them to get jobs or help network them into high paying influential roles, but that's still work, even if it's cushy as fuck.

Yes the wealth gap is growing, the boomers had it easier than us, and it will never be easier to accumulate wealth than it is today, it will always be harder.

Yes, I'd say the bottom 95% of people are serfs though, and it's a good thing that the poors are being robbed. Look at what these past generations of the most wealthy midwits in history created, all the freedom and wealth and ability to create, all squandered on dogshit contemporary toilet art, everything inverted and transformed into the most cucked. It's been one long slowly drawn out suicide on a societal level, all to demonstrate that the average person should not have power and should not be voting.
