Now lets take a look at a wider version of the same information. Oops!. Funny how she left that little part off, isn't it?
Wealthy are people who make over $25 million a year and no, when you make that much money you are not working. A lot of that is hedge fund managers and people playing with money on Wall Street. Using other people's money so it they lose money it's not theirs but if they make money it is.

What makes you think that isn't work? Ever try to be a quant? If it was so easy to do, anyone and everyone could do it. Einstein's Theory of Relativity was deduced via a lot of intellectual thought and mental manipulations. Was that also "not work," in your opinion?
FYI, hedge fund managers and "people playing with money on Wall Street" shepherd the following:
Millions of working and retiree Americans have $27 trillion worth of investments in their pensions (public and private) and/or retirement accounts.
It is truly stunning how uninformed and narrow-minded some people are.
