Would be curious for more data points on this, such as the top 30% and 50%, interesting graph

Don’t worry, it will trickle down any minute now

Even the wages of the top 10% appear practically stagnant by comparison to the top 0.1%.
What would they do about this kind of situation in Nepal? Or in France?

as a kid becoming a millionaire was the dream and now it’s not even money you can retire on.

And this ends in 2022 which doesn’t cover a lot of the run up in stock prices post-covid.

Thats actually impressive, that means there are about 30M Americans (assuming and equal distribution of households and population) living in home with >2M net worth.
Even if thats “just the house value” doesn’t change the fact that they can still sell the house in this market and go live as kings in most other places on the planet.

Class-warfare and the masses don’t even know they’re in it

The top 0.1% looks like it affects the top 1%.
It would be nice if this were top 0.1% and 0.1%-1.0% and 1.0%-10%.

I’d like to see this broken down by age. I doubt anybody would choose to be in the 0.1% range while simultaneously turning 85.

if you want to talk about the growth of anything that is expected to grow exponentially, the y axis should be on a log scale so that a linear regression is an estimate of the growth rate

Since wealth growth is exponential I’d recommend that you use an index graph. Right now all is says it people with money earns more money.
