Being rich is not the same thing as creating jobs. In a sense, it's the opposite: Every full-time equivalent's worth of income brought in is a full-time equivalent's worth of money that someone else didn't make instead. In a way, wealth is better thought-of as a measure of how many jobs the owner of a company could have created, but didn't.
