As traditional Catholics should we reject riches even if they are obtained through legitimate means?  Should we not accept inheritances? Should the successful hide their wealth so as to not trigger the envy of the less fortunate?

What are the moral teachings?  

I don't know, there's someone on anther thread who apparently racked up over $4 million and nobody said that was a sin.

No, that was just some basement dweller who obviously has never paid their own bills. No mature, self-supporting adult could ever say something so ridiculous.

Only a naive child would think that "$80,000 a year" means you have $80K in your pocket on December 31st.

Your $4M figure is literally taking a modest income and multiplying it by a working lifetime. "What are expenses? I haven't heard of these creatures..." 

It doesn't work that way, son.

This child obviously works fast food or retail, and gets to keep 100% of his income because he still lives at home and is fully supported by Mom & Dad, like a 10 year old.

Also, with money you have, you can volunteer working for your chapel and praying and spreading the gospel. 

I prefer music of a higher caliber. Usually by whites, not blacks. I'm not going to virtue signal how much I like this or that black singer, to advertise how racist I'm not.

So you're going to signal that you're a presumptuous asshole instead? Interesting.

So I'm going to bet that this poster as well as the OP here is the same OP in the 35% Workforce Reduction thread.  And he's trolling.

We shouldn't seek out riches for the sake of riches, but there's no need to reject riches gotten legitimately. If someone takes a vow of poverty or chooses to live as modestly as possible as a layperson, then that's an admirable step. But same as with the vocation of marriage, or even very simple things like eating meat or drinking wine, material wealth is a created good that we can use or misuse.

We should use our wealth, including inheritances, for the greater good (donating it prudently to the poor) and for honoring Our Lord. Think of Joseph of Arimathea. Note too that many Gospel parables make use of a wealthy man who's either good or bad because of his actions, not because of his wealth. If any grumble about another person's wealth in itself, then think also of Judas grumbling that Mary Magdalene "wasted" money on those fine ointments she used to anoint Christ.

No, it's not sinful to be wealthy, though it would be sinful to hoard wealth or spend the wealth on luxuries when there are people out there in need of the basics.

If I won the lottery or something, I would make sure my children were taken care of (set up in life), make some preps for whatever is coming, and then give the rest away to people who are truly in need.  Probably the most I would do is to put away enough to retire on, quit my job, and then dedicate the rest of my life to prayer (including praying for those in need) and other service.
