There is world and wherein people want to flourish with wealth among themselves. That is a capitalist world. Che wanted to see the world with equal wealth among all people. His dream became fulfilled at least in some parts of the world in the present days.

Actually there is one world where people get paid based on how hard they work, and what they are willing to risk to help others. Then there's the world where somebody gives orders, and shoots you if you disobey. Later, he says it was for the 'common good.'
An entrepreneur/ businessman risks more than a regular worker. If you lose a job, you go to zero- you have to start again. If an entrepreneur loses his job, he goes negative- getting into so much debt so fast that it will take him a long time to recover. Only a madman would take such a risk if it was not compensated more.
Hence inequality is necessary, even justified, as long as the welath is attained fairly- through investment and enterprise, not by stealing, regulation, price control cheating etc.

Yes , I agree with you. There is nothing wrong in being rich or aspiring to be rich, as long as one is using fair means. People who are able to produce better results at the work place should get better pay. Also I don't understand why some people crib about how the rich spend their money ! Its their money, they decide if the want to live a rich live-style. If for example a rich man spends crores of rupees on his son / daughters wedding, others should not crib.
