Billionaires don’t “work”. At least not in the sense that they get some amount of money that’s in any way in relation to the value they create. They shuffle around money to do things for them and sometimes that makes them more money. Calling that “work” lessens the meaning of that word and gives them too much credit.

Slight clarification: they pay people to shuffle money around to make them more money. It’s all automated at this point to ensure they don’t have to do anything.
It’s also impossible to work hard enough to “earn” a billion dollars. Billionaires are billionaires because they stole the wages and wealth from the workers who helped them succeed. None of them “earned” it because it’s literally impossible to be such a good worker that you’re worth a billion.

They make more money because they already have so much money. At those levels, the money makes itself.
It’s like slavery with extra steps.
No they don’t really do that either, they pay people to do it for them.
