Not really, we might have only one billionaire, but all the millionaires are very greedy, as well as the upper clear as a whole. Combining that greed with the sky rocketing cost of living, mainly due to digital nomads and airbnb, we're certainly not an example. Just a collapse waiting to happen.

Having almost no billionaires doesn't mean we have any less wealth inequality than the other countries.

We're just poor af as a whole.
