Yes.
Money is a claim on wealth, but one doesn’t need to create wealth in order to acquire money.
A hedge fund can “make” millions just from buying and selling stocks and commodities, but nothing is actually created (resources are actually consumed instead).
One can live off capital gains—or other forms of rent extraction.
In each case, nothing is produced or created (if anything, energy and resources are consumed in the process) in order to acquire money, with that money then used to claim real commodities and services created through the very real work of other people.
