I think there are a lot of similar questions and answers on this very site that will give lengthy explanations about why this is happening and why evil happens.
Even reading the book of Job you can understand that their prosperity will not be everlasting, Job 24:23-24, but because Jesus came to save the world and not to destroy it, Luke 9:56, some of them will enjoy a good life during the present age and 'rewarded' for their deeds in the age to come (Matthew 13:29-30.)
