"Fair???"

I can't wait, like I wanted. This won't be what I planned or plan to write, but....

I'm reviewing a book right now and the author writes, "It may not seem fair" that the only way to make money is to work for it. Now to be "fair," the author does later write about investments. But what would be "fair?" How about just giving people money, for free, for doing nothing? Or, would robbing a bank be "fair?" Or how about defrauding people out of their money? Well, I suppose one who robs a bank or defrauds people is doing some work....

Maybe "fair" isn't a word most people should use.
