Yes but is it healthy.

If a kid graduated with comp sci degree in 2000, joined decent companies as a w2 employee, does he become "repugnant" and "deserves to be shunned if not punished" the moment his net worth crosses 1m, which may happen within a few years of graduation?

Or does he need to "marinade" a few years as a millionaire before we roll out the guillotine?

If he joined a worse company (or slacked and didn't get promoted) and hadn't become a millionaire, does he avoid the repugnancy and punishment?

What if he did make the money but blew on stupidity, does that also avoid that classification?
