“People who are in a fortunate position always attribute virtue to what makes them so happy.” | John Kenneth Galbraith (quoted in Poor Charlie’s Almanack)

I chuckled at this other related accompaniment – “People of privilege will always risk their complete destruction rather than surrender any material part of their advantage.”

Loss aversion is real.
