He isn't taking $500,000, he's creating $500,000.

Taking would mean that his activities reduce the wealth of everyone else by $500k, and that if he just disappeared off the face of the earth everyone else would be richer by $500k, but the reality is the opposite, without the current wealthy and their work and investment the middle class and poor would be worse off.
