The rich don't make their toys, working people do.

I know what you're saying but that generalization doesn't hold true in a lot of cases. Bill Gates is a good example. He doesn't do the elbow grease stuff any longer but he did. Steve Jobs. Henry Ford is another good example. Michael Dell. Thomas Edison. Sam Walton (although he didn't so much make products as he did sell them). All self made men. All of them did make the toy that everyone else wanted. They all sweated and sacrificed and put in unthinkable hours to make it happen.

Bill Gates doesn't look like he ever sweat a day in his life.
