Well, you weren't either so it seems fair. "1 in 20 people make over 200k / year" -> As you probably meant full income earners it would be interesting to see what it would be if measured actually for "people".
- Retric 9y agoPeople in the highest income brackets tend be working full time significantly more in large part because people near retirement get both dividends and a full time salary, but people in retirement are generally drawing down their wealth. So, they may not be making 420k exclusively from their job, but 200+k / year is surprisingly common.
