One of my cousins is married to a guy who has a commercial insurance brokerage. He doesn't work very hard. The family is either on vacation or planning their next one. Their kids are in private high schools. I respect the guy for being smart enough to get into a biz that pays him handsomely but would never accuse him of working hard or taking any risks. His wealth comes from the premiums paid by actual hard workers and risk takers; those willing to invest in businesses and commercial real estate.
They come to visit once a year for a few days and his girls always want to go riding. I make sure he gets the most difficult horse, and helping me butcher and clean a chicken is always on the to-do list too.
