Indeed, the richer people were, the more they generally made, and the poorer people were, the more they lost.
Those who didn't understand thought it was just some people being naturally lucky with wealth, and others not. However, in the scientific realm of finance, it couldn't be called luck but should be referred to as probability.
Anyone who had studied mathematics understood that probability was the numerator divided by the denominator. With a fixed denominator, the one with the larger numerator would surely win. Therefore, those who had more capital in their hands, as long as they used it properly, even just through stable operations, their wealth would continue to accumulate more than those without money.
For example, considering the same interest rate on deposits, who would accumulate wealth faster, the owner of ten thousand in capital or the owner of a hundred million? The result is self-evident.
