So he's worth several million but that's still not part of the 1%? what?

  My parents are worth several million, they've spent their lives as a high school teacher/administrator/community college professor and an administrative assistant. Some boomers were just able to buy houses and otherwise save for retirement because that's how the world used to work, it's crazy I know.

    That still makes them part of the 1% I think a lot of people get confused about the 1% and the .1% where the billionaires live.

      Joe Manchin is not in the 1% by net worth either, He has a net worth of 7.6 Million[0] and you have to have a net worth of over 11 Million of be in the 1 %[1] [0] https://www.opensecrets.org/personal-finances/joe-manchin/net-worth?cid=N00032838&year=2018 https://www.opensecrets.org/personal-finances/joe-manchin/ne...
