The difference between the average and median net worth should be a giant red flag.
We need to tax billionaires.
If I were a progressive candidate this graph would be the background of my logo/yard signs.

> The net worth threshold for those in the 99th percentile is $13,666,778
So that’s how much it takes to be a 1%-er?
The biggest item in net worth is owning a home.
My friend is 34 and makes $22 an hour and has 2 jobs, all because he wants to look rich by driving a BMW that he bought for 65k. He was upside down in his last car of 20k, so his payments are $1200 a month and has a $450 insurance payment. He will NEVER get this paid off. His net worth is negative. How could we calculate that in the chart?
Edit: 8% of American families have a negative net worth.
What a beautiful chart. I wish I could see it through all the ads on my screen.
Absolute shit site packed full of ads.
I really highly doubt there are more than 3 million people in this country that have a net worth over 13 million dollars. Maybe 6-7 million net worth to get to the top 1% is more accurate. What do I know?
Unless the top 0.01% is skewing this?
Yeah, not telling some random website my net worth
