It's hard sometimes not to imagine there's some guy who shows up on day one and lays it all out; here's what the rich people will be getting, and devil take the hindmost. It would explain this kind of instantaneous disappointment very neatly (which is why I don't believe it, tidy theories being most often wrong).
