>Its easy to say "I don't resent people with more money than me" but then you see someone in the richest 1% of the world complaining about being oppressed.

Here's an excerpt from Wikipedia's definition of wealth:
>
The concept of wealth is relative and not only varies between societies, but varies between different sections or regions in the same society. A personal net worth of US $10,000 in most parts of the United States would certainly not place a person among the wealthiest citizens of that locale. However, such an amount would constitute an extraordinary amount of wealth in impoverished developing countries.

Wealth is relative.
To someone dying of thirst, someone with a glass of water has all the wealth that anyone could possibly need.
