To someone in Nigeria on 50usd per month, 1usd is a lot. To a guy earning 10k per month in California, 1 usd is nothing. Who’s distorted here? 50usd or 10k guy?

Everything is relative.

Not distorted. It’s a billionaire perspective, but it’s very real and 100% true to the billionaire. Look up the concept of marginal utility of money.
