It is probably an indirect criticism of the “just make better decisions and you’ll be rich” mentality that generally tries to put rich people on a pedestal for being geniuses who ‘figured it out’ and ‘read between the lines’ to get on top
if you’re saying that I’m engaging in a strawman, I am deriving at this based off of OP, which is before you entered the conversation, and noone was assigning this opinion to you, but it’s definitely a thing I’ve encountered in the wilds myself, so I felt I could see what OP meant with their message
Sure, everyone does dumb shit. But rich people have the money, time and opportunity to do dumber shit on a bigger scale. When they get in trouble they have the infrastructure to bail them out.

When poor people do dumb shit they’re left to die in obscurity without any help. The news is full of stories about orcas destroying mega yachts, CEOs sabotaging their own companies and billionaires launching stupid new tech ventures. I’d enjoy watching them set their money on fire if it weren’t for the harm they’re causing everyone else.
