I'm pretty sure my boss is close to that million dollar threshold.  He might work harder than me some days. He certainly works longer hours, for what that's worth.  But I'm the worker, and he's the business owner.  The essential thing about his situation is not that he works, because everyone else in the office works. The essential thing about his situation is that he owns the place.

Your boss took risks along the way to get to where he is that you are unwilling to take. That is why you are and always will be the "worker".
