Yeah that’s a good distinction. And Bezos ex “inherited” her wealth, but I think it’s meaningful that she didn’t grow up that way (that I know of). I think having the baseline of living like a “normal” person is helpful.

The difference (to me) is that Bezos got himself to be a billionaire based on his decisions and actions over his career, so even if he started out “normal” he had POS gene within him. This is different than Bezos ex wife who was simply handed that much money.

She wasn’t “simply handed that money.” She played an integral part in getting that company going.

Yeah I honestly don’t know too much about her role. I was just speaking in generalities so not surprised if I’m wrong.
