I think there's a big difference in those who "make" $200k in W-2 income
and those who "make" $200k on investments, rents, etc.

If you _work_ for $200k, you're working very hard.

Certainly not enough to _justify_ the difference from those who _work_
for $40k, but you're working.

But don't forget: it's "not that hard" to "make" $200k if you've got $3M
to start.  Heck, if you've got $3M and you're NOT "making" $200k/yr,
contact me off list :-)
