Are you American? I don't know about other countries, but here in the US there's a cultural trope that our economic system finnacially rewards hard work & effort. It's hard to point to a specific piece of propaganda, but it's definitely baked into our social mythology.
OP is saying that the myth is a lie, and that hard work doesn't really guarantee you anything, in the United States.
Also, pay rates seem to be inversely proportional to the job's benefit to society. Vulture capitalists rake in the dough while workers who do essential tasks to actually make other people's lives better don't get paid shit.

Working hard does not mean you'll be paid well, or have money.
Then the other argument of money =/= wealth.
