Maybe winners don't need palaces, huge gardens and the most expensive private jets and maybe the losers don't need to go starving without any kind of health care.

It looks good on paper, but I would like to see how the human greed factor plays into this. I don't think humans would be able to execute this plan. Basic emotions prevent it (greed, jealousy, hate, love). The only thing you would do by trying to change the system is piss a different group of people off.
