He's saying their lives don't resemble each other's.

There's a point at which there's not much difference between rich and richer, but it's in the hundreds of millions of net worth range. A guy worth 100 million and a guy worth 10 billion have a lot in common in their lives. That's not the case for the guy making 200k a year, whose life is not all that much different from the dude who makes 80k. Those guys both take weekend trips to camp, have 1-2 cars, have a mortgage, worry about their kid's grades at public school, take the occasional vacation and shop at the local co-op. You're not going to meet the Koch brothers in the dairy aisle.
