I disagree that a lot of people are invested in the stock market. Statistically, it's very few people.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoA similar distribution holds for income, but I don’t think it would be wrong to say that a lot of people have an income in the US.
- shawnz 6y agoJust because the top owners skew the share of ownership so much doesn't mean that "very few people" are invested. Our pensions might be nothing to the top earners of the country but that doesn't mean they're nothing to each one of us individually.
