I agree to an extent that Reich’s personal wealth/earnings can certainly elicit a smirk when held up next to his message.
It's a bit more than that. His earnings to a small extent feed the inflated and still-inflating costs of the best way to overcome income & wealth inequality.

Agreed, actually. And that's an interesting take - his earnings in his particular position do seem problematic given that said earnings are then directly responsible, in some small way, for causing one of the issues he harps on; that being the rising costs of higher education.
