Socialism

Right, that's the whole philosophy behind capitalism. If you have capital, you're supposed to hold onto it and "put it to work" aka find ways to make money off of it and other people with less or no capital. The filthy rich have done this or, more than likely, their ancestors have done this and have accumulated a large amount of capital. The Russian oligarchs and their families, though, they're culturally different and a lot of them are not capitalists as described by Marx. They very much enjoy being ostentatious and showing off their trinkets, which is why I wondered and asked about it.
