As for the discussion with Bolin about Korra, that technically hasn\'t happened in series yet, so hold off on that. Now lets get to the wealth part: Mako hasn\'t shown any disdain for wealth as far as I\'ve seen in the released series. He\'s not disdainful of wealth, per se, he\'s disdainful of Korra not appreciating what she has. He obviously admires Hiroshi Sato\'s success story, obviously hoping to emulate it himself, but he dislikes the fact that Korra has had everything handed to her in life. That doesn\'t sound like hypocrisy to me, and fits his character perfectly. He\'s had to work for everything he has in life, just like Sato worked his way to the top, so he doesn\'t begrudge Sato his success. On the other hand, he perceives Korra as being given everything without having to work for it, simply because she\'s the Avatar. Now, we\'ve seen her working hard at training and the pressure she\'s under to perform her duties, but he hasn\'t. He just sees her as some celebrity.
