So is it impossible? Well not technically,

That's what I was saying. It is not, strictly speaking, absolutely impossible. But so improbably as to be nearly not at all possible.

Although, that being said, you made a lot of good points in that comment, to the point where I have to change my mind a bit and say that I agree with you. Humility can take you far to preserve a sense of empathy, but the sheer corruption of the decisions you have to take to become that wealthy inherently make it infinitesimally improbable that you will come out the other side even half as good a person as you went in.

In short, technically improbable but not impossible, yet practically impossible.
