I have plenty of savings, but about $300 in my savings account, the rest spread across checking and other accounts. I'd be counted amongst the "poor" in this poll due to that. Is there more data somewhere? The poll is often touted, but I wonder if it shows what you think, or just shows that savings accounts now days are mostly useless?
- mschuster91 6y agoThese polls are based on net assets, at least the German ones which show similarly disastrous results. For what it's worth 40 million people i the US are facing eviction because they can't come up with something as essential as rent. This is how deep the social divide has become in the US.
- johnbrodie 6y agoGot links for US ones based on net assets? Would definitely clear up the situation one way or the other.
