Where did his parents wealth come from?
Putin’s sugar-daddy was a guy named Boris Yeltsin… you should look him up - it’s a fun read.

You can think about it in that way if you want. People like Putin are not the kind of character that gets used to peddle “rags-to-riches” billionaire fallacies in the west.
Billionaire isn’t a good term, it’s an insult and tells of a flawed society
Self-made means they are the criminal
Inherited means their relatives were criminals
