Are you sure? Or are you just falling for the image they are trying to portray?
Money can make a lot of things easier, it's true. But life is a motherfucking bitch that ain't that simple. Making part of it easier makes other parts of it harder. Rich people do experience depression though, they do sometimes commit suicide. They're still people. Foolish ones, even.
You're missing the true meaning of the word easy in this context.
Easily as in won't have to struggle for food, housing, clean water, luxuries, or anything really.
Being rich makes simply surviving irrelevant and assumed.
When you don't have to worry about any of the daily struggles life is by definition easy.
If survival is your only goal, sure. But that's sad as fuck, and an indication a person needs assistance of some sort. Nobody should only have to rely on themselves, we'd all end up no better than HAMAS.
Ah yes, I am poor and therefore I am as bad as terrorists. Thanks so much for opening my eyes. Guess I just buy a few houses and stop being poor then. Man, all this time and I didn't even know I was the evil one.
Don't misunderstand me. Being poor and being a terrorist are not the same. However, being oppressed for long enough will make you hate your leaders enough to turn you into one.
I'm talking real oppression though, where you have no real control over anything.
Also, when I say "do what it takes to survive" I'm talking about robbery and murder. Not just picking up some extra work here and there.

The rest is frankly just superfluous bullshit.

For lots of people even survival is difficult is the point
That's true. I shouldn't speak down on that with the kinds of things going on in the world.
