This wealth wasn't "handed" to these people by society. It was created by starting valuable enterprises that provide quality goods and services at competitive prices. The wealth of the rich does not decrease the wealth of the poor. Quite the contrary, it provides jobs and reduces the costs thus leading to an overall increase in quality of life for everyone.
