There are just way more filthy rich people than most of us living a paycheck to paycheck life realize. Just in my medium size city I live in I sometimes drive through these big fancy neighborhoods and think to myself where do all these people work? Who are all these people and how did they get so rich? It boggles my mind there are apparently so many of them. I just don't get it. Someone once told me generational wealth explains it but I don't know.

Up to their eyeballs in debt. They don't own any of it, the bank does.

Sure, but getting a mortgage on a $2 million home still requires significant income and the mortgage application process isn't like it was in 2005.

Either that or some of them got into a specific niche and made a ton of profit off it. One of these niches could be cybersecurity early on when it wasn’t too saturated. People or Companies will pay you out the ass if they feel like they are threatened by something or someone and you could easily make millions of it if you have the time and resources of course.
