Actually, ur game is what the buddhist believe in. They believe that the soul is reborn again and again til it reaches its nirvana (in ur case the goal). But to get thier, u start as a peasant with a harsh life (that 90 %category) til u reach the millionaire statis (10 % category). From there, u become a god and then u reach nirvana. ITs funny the way u put it but ur reasoning is actually a religion that occupies a good portion of the world.
